Default Knife for ID please

I bought this knife on holiday in Kent about 15 years ago. Just re-found it in amongst some bits n bobs having not seen it in quite a few years. given it a bit of a clean up, remember it was old and grubby when I bought it and I kind of lost interest in it once I'd cleaned it up and so its been a bit forgotten since then.
Looks indian, but I've not seen another one like it. Its well made with a finely ground thick steel blade, horn handle with bone pegs, brass mounts etc.

Anyone know where they come from or if they are just last quarter 20thC for the tourists?

Thanks
Gene
