The extreme angle of the at the bottom side of the mouth of the scabbard does lead me to believe that it has been recarved, and as others have said, likely some time ago.

Frankly, who cares!!!...it's such a lovely piece and such an excellent restoration job. The fact that it still retains its scabbard at all is a plus!!

Congrats!
