Well maybe the yatagan and the scababard are different. It's the reason why the sword is going inside the scabbard like the khyber knifes. For me it's a Turkish yatagan rehilted as a long hunting knife but probably in the Ottoman empire...

Nice and well made yataghan. I agree it is unusual, but grips with ivory/bone over horn were not unheard of. I would think this may have been done somewhere in the Western Balkans.
