sheath mountings and ferules of ivory, bone, and horn are common on Indonesian work, and are sometimes seen elsewhere. I might suggest bone (for the throat piece) and/or antler as readily affordable alternatives to ivory which can very closely match its appearance, without any desire to fool Sherlock Holmes about it.
