Hi,
In my opinion the grip slabs are elephant ivory and not walrus. A nice piece though....!!!! My inclination is North India Mughal influence late 18th century. We should be able to find more as the experts come in  Regards, Bhushan |

salut cerjak
ton peshkabz est afghan 19ième , je pense que la poignée est en ivoire d'éléphant... pas du morse.. It is an afghan peshkabz 19th, I think that the handle is of the elephant,not the walrus |

Looks more like camel bone, but a nice real old knife.

As others have stated, it is Afghan not Indian, the grip would be elephant ivory. I'd say 20th century, not 19th.
