I have left it as i bought it for now, as i feel its one of those things that touching with no experience can make things worse.

I had a knife like this when I was a kid, maybe slightly more curved. Unfortunately the wooden grip broke off at some point (revealing a short 2cm tang or so IIRC) and the blade got lost during a move. Side note: After the grip broke I used to pretend it was a velociraptor claw.

I've been wondering where it was from. My guess would be Moroccan or Algerian.
