Nicely done -- to my eye it has an Arabic flair to it 
. Is there a sheath to go along with it? How about some specifications?
The concept was a Spanish blade that had been nicely re - handled at some point. The guard and handle would have been additions,but the brass ferrule may have been either new or reused from the original knife. Those brass panels on the blade would typically butt up against a metal sheath - Several people who know Spanish knives have questioned the guard on this one before I had pointed out my demented concept behind it.
Anyhow I can see what you are seeing in it. It is most interesting to trace details and influences over time, often times even something as simple as commonly used shapes that we might associate with the art of a particular culture have their origins elsewhere
Sorry no measurements, made it a few months back and don't have specs on it. The handle was from an ash surveyor's hub I had saved for years. Fittings were brass and wrought iron.
I did make a baldric type sheath to go with it but no photo
