Thanks to all for your comments.As Jim noted the guard certainly has that "butterfly knife look," however the scabbard fits only one weapon and it will not accommodate a second one.It may have been made from a reshaped sword, however it would have been massive as the largest width of the blade is 1.5" and 5/16" thick at the base of the spine.
Sajen, you nailed it again, plus as I was exploring the site you provided, I found out that I have a "Rare Santali Shield," lol.
