Hi gp and welcome to the Forum.
I agree with others that your knife/dagger is likely North African.
Two things......The wood wafers need to be placed back inside the scabbard so that the blade fits properly.
Re the quillon.....It looks from your pics as if the blade has slipped out of the handle and lets the quillon spin. Try tapping GENTLY the top of the handle with the quillon correctly placed, and blade tip against a block of wood to see if it will fit tighter..
Very nice knife by the way.....
