Silver Pinned Khanjar

[archer]

I was Looking at Michael Blalok's Saidi sheath and seeing a lot of thread work.
Mine doesn't have the holes for the center rings could extra rings be held by just wire? Could it have been made without the center rings? It seems, it is missing the metal decoration at the throat of the sheath and the bottom of the hilt. One shot shows, blade fully seated in the sheath. The hilt material may well be wood of some kind. I guess the hot pin method will tell. About, how old is this dagger? Thanks, Steve
