Interesting, the pommel bears some resemblance to the discus pommels on Wute/Baboute archer's swords from Central Cameroon. The blade markings suggest Cameroon as place of origin as well.

Iain is the expert on the subject and I am sure he will comment when he sees this thread.

The brass work on the scabbard resembles that found on Taureg daggers......
