I THINK THAT THIS DAGGER IS TIBETAN WHAT ARE YOUR OPINIONS

IT MEASURES 50 CM LONG X 2.8 CM WIDE

Looks like a recycled bayonet blade. The hide looks like Hyena?

IMHO, the handle style is somewhat Tibetan or Mongolian, but the blade
is as Trenchwarfare says, a recycled bayonet. But that
wouldn't be totally unreasonable. I would suspect that
is it fairly recent; i.e. 20th C.

Is there any writing or decoration on that silver shield looking thing?

not no inscription on the silver shield...

I think that the piece of skin is the snow leopard, and beads in turquoise
