			Hello Eric, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	I think it's pointless to worry about where this blade came from! Without a handle and scabbard, it will be very difficult to assign the blade. And it's not a very special blade which would be worth giving it a "new" handle. Regards, Detlef  |

			Not saying that's the case here, but this type of hilt isn't unheard of in Africa : https://www.africanarms.com/images/b...iver-39-cm.jpg
