Persian Jambiya??

Here we go again. Nice little dagger. Tourist piece? Real deal? Origin and age? Any info will help and be appreciated. Thanks, RON

I'm seeing a tourist piece there.

Hi Ron,
Some observations only......the silver???disc at the top of the scabbard has the Turkish Moon and Star, and below that there are what appears to be the Arabic numerals 157. Perhaps someone can translate the script below the numerals??
A very pretty piece and it looks as if some considerable time has been spent on the hilt and scabbard decoration. As to whether it is tourist or not, I would leave to those with better insight than I.
