That's normal but if you ever think about replacing it again a decent or well crafted pendok (used/new) should cost a little while it is not made of or contain precious metal. The hilt is not appropriate for the sheath, but again also quite affordable. But if I were you for the time being I will keep it just the way it is, especially if this is a recent acquisition and see if you still like it another Christmas or two, then it might need some makeover. Oh, and keep the hilt and the hilt cup away from this forum crowd if you ever change it, it seems a nice one (low grade silver? & refined carving? hardwood?).
