Default Turkish/ greek dagger or North african genoui ?

Hello dear members,

I found today at flea market this nice item for few buckets,
it was just for decoration, the blade is not a good one
but the scabbard and the hilt are really nice and ( for me )
and are well made, maybe not too recent.

The scabbard seems to be silvered brass
the hilt, maybe silver parts on horn or really hard wood.

First I thought it was a genoui style Moroccan dagger especially for the hilt shape
but I saw months ago in an auction house a turkish dagger with the same tip end on the scabbard, it was said to be turkish or ottoman greek origin ( sadly no picture)

Kubur ??
