Salaams, That looks like an Ethiopian blade with a yemeni Hilt .. Theres a lot of Hilts in Oman like that and they appear to suggest Falcon heads. I have two or three but on different blades; likely european imports (German) Heavy single edge with fullers . Useful on a ship... Dhow . The equivalent of a cutlass I suppose? I have a picture..
