Ethiopian saber - request for blade ID and supplier

Yes, one broad fuller merges into two narrow fullers near the tip. (I think, technologically it is not good solution. The blade was already bent in the "transition point" in the past, due to different strength properties caused by one fuller and two fullers).

The cap is missing. Nevertheless the spine going through the handle was hammered flat very properly long time ago, you can see edges polished by hand through the years of using. It everything holds very fast together, without any movements.
