You are right, there are at least 2 such swords/long daggers, possibly even originating from the same shop. The decorative motif on the hilts and scabbards is 100% Moroccan. The bird's head on the other hand is interesting and unusual and may hold the key to solving the mystery, but I really do not know its origin or significance.
