Sort of maybe a takouba - Cameroon?

[Iain]

This is a recent addition, apologies in advance for the poor photos. Not great conditions here today.

This is not a piece with great age - certainly 20th century. However I got it because the style intrigued me. The blade is like a Guduf sword from Cameroon (comparison included in the photos) nicely forged, while the hilt is a very odd takouba style configuration with wood and what I think is bone?

I've encountered wood used for grips in takouba before, but never a pommel.

I find the overall result attractive even if its not as old an item as I usually try to collect. It is at least well put together and shows the extended influence of the takouba.
