Hi
the general aspect, and indeed the inlay looks "Indian",
but the mentions are in arabic,
on the blade
- in the "cartouche" at right, the Holy name of God "Allah"
- in the "cartouche" at left, the Holy name of the last Prophet "Mohamed"
- under the cartouche, the name of "Abdallah" (may be owner name ?)

on the scabbard;
"Amal Ahmed ???? Hussein"
"Made by Ahmed ???? Hussein"

due to all arabic mentions, doubtful that could be Ottoman, even Persian
dagger
