Interesting piece. The blade looks like it could be a salvaged sword blade. Not something in the standard catalog but would most likely qualify as a badik. The silverwork suggests Sumatra or perhaps Riau.

Interesting nice little dagger. Unusual that it was used two different wood for the sheat. I would vote for Sumatra as well. When you boring it one day I would be happy to give it a new home!

Regards,
