I believe this to be a 19C Kurdish Iraqi jambiya. I'd say that the scabbard is a newer replacement, but from within the cultural context. It has a horn hilt with inset turqoises and one coral.

The blade has an odd elongated 'pore' structure - not sure if that is a result of grinding and/or cleaning, or if it's something to do with the type of steel used.
