Hello Ron!

The knife you have here is called a khodmi or mous. They mainly come from Morocco but also come from Algeria due to tribal nomads and and culteral diffusion. I have one of these from the Algeria-Morocco border combining aspects of both nations. To anwser your question about he blade, yes blades were reused overtime, but yours apperars to be all origenal. Maybe anouther forum member chould contribute more. About the kills I don't know. The fact that yours has a history to Algeria should add a 'spark' to the old argument of Algeria or Morocco.

Mark...
Here are some links the first link shows my khodmi at top.
