Not a rhino hilt. I would suggest some sort of cattle horn.

The top of the hilt does not show any of the rhino grain, the translucency is not right. The fiberious structure along the hilt is that of a cattle horn rather than rhino. Also, on the side of the hilt, you can see the white stain like structure that is characteristic of cattle horn.
