I just thought I might add that looking at this on your PC you will not be able to see that the washers in the handle, have been hand made and are not stamped out, so it only looks like western constuction.I think the blade is ground from maybe a larger knife.The only thing is the tang is thiner than the blade.I think I am sure the blade was not forged to shape.The wire stitching on the scabbard is in chain stitch.Thank you for any help.Tim
