Looks very much like a West African blade in some ways like the stiletto blades from the region to me. The guard is also like those on swords and daggers from the Nigerian/Cameroon borders. The scabbard in more confusing, however the rings on the throat look North African.

Possibly Algerian.
The tip of the blade is reminiscent of some Flyssas.
Best wishes
