Question Jambiya for comment

Hello friends,

Digging through a box of items acquired years ago, I found this jambiya:

Hilt: Possibly ebony or horn grip.
Blade: 5 ¼ inches long, sharp both sides, shows some wear but no nicks or serious damage.
Sheath: all metal
Total length excluding sheath: 9 ¾ inches

Is this one "for the traveler" or something a bit more interesting? Possible origin? I welcome your comments.

Best Regards,

Dave A.
