Sorry, but I just have noticed something. The photo of your handle, seen from above, with the tang etc.
Is it my impression, that the tang stops short of the "ears', so that there is an empty space between the end of the tang and the point where the cheeks touch each other and before they separate into ears?

If so, I would join Alex's suggestion that a re-hilting took place.
