Hi Stu,
If it is Moroccan, will certainly be an 'atypical' work; starting by the fact that the Moroccan symbol (flag) is a five pointed star, whereas this one is a six pointed one, a rather distinct representation.
Just saying ... .

Hello Fernando,

I wouldn't be so sure about the six pointed star. I have seen it in many certainly Islamic works like Turkish yatagans or Syrian saifs, as it is a rather traditional Islamic symbol as well (see link below).
