Not my area of expertise, so take with a big lump of salt: This grip section (as well as crossguard) doesn't look neither East Asian nor Himalayan to me.

Any chance, this might be African instead?

Regards,
Kai

I had the same thought as kai--perhaps African.

Could it be an very old Gaelic sword?
