The hilt and guard does look fairly recent, very little wear or patina on the handle. The saw fish 'bill' does look like it has some age. So possibly a re-hilted piece or a more recent 'marriage' of a sword bill with a hilt.

I too think its quite interesting Iain, I have never seen one mounted in this way or one so large.
