Ariel,
You're okay, it's not from Daghestan. This is a Khevsur sabre of the 1920s-30s; the key is in the motifs, techniques and materials used in the inlays. You might compare with some shown in Astvatsaturian. Incidentally, the scabbard has been recently recovered in pigskin. You won't find that in Daghestan much.
