This is clearly made from a swordfish bill. You can find dozens of examples of these online if you search and i have personally come across them multiple times in antique store, especial in coast seafaring regions.
i cannot comment on weather or not this is a tourist item or not. I have seen these made by cultures from all over the world that have access to such fish parts. I would image that in some parts of the world these may well have been used as actual weapons, though many others are obviously done as folk art of created by hobbyists.
