Sword Identification ????? Please Help !!!!

The flat tang, the soldered copper rivets, and the overlaid bolster are all suggestive of traditional European knives; I find that the swords of the farmers and workers are often constructed after the style of a knife. Loose thoughts. No idea, really, as to age. It reminds me of a Mexican sword my brother has.

I'm really sorry for voicing my opinion - I really don't know anything about western swords, but I kind of like it.
