Very interesting and not unattractive, it has a strong and confident finish, what a shame there is no scabbard to add its information. I would say this was well made and not something the maker has done just the once. To me the blade could very easily be African. There was a knife on ebay recently with the same lazy "S" shaped guard. It to was said to hail from Afghanistan, however the handle was made of that horn and metal/other materials layers very often seen in the North and NE Africa and Yemen, bit of a mystery? I think this another, could you made anything as good denied of your wealth education and equipment just down the road in a shop. I like it. Tim
