Looks like a baton to me. Some high up chap. Could be a club but a little short? and rather fancy for an ordinary fighter? nice though

what ever it is that object, the last pics very clear show;
- arabic writing
- none arabic language
- either; Farsi or Pashto alphabet (د پښتو الفباء)

impossibility to have a Coptic origine as mentionned,
but for sure Indo-Iranian

Default Bar Maces

Booty from Adoni stored at Bikaner Armory had bar maces 64cm long with a very similar construction, pictured in "The Arts of the Muslim Knight" page 237.
