Very interesting having a mid rib on one side only. I have been looking in some books and although I cannot find an exact match, I feel this knife is probably Tiv from Nigeria, the same blade form is seen in their all metal loop daggers, if not Tiv then from that area of Nigeria and Cameroon borders.
