Small Indian (?) dagger for ID

The shape of the blade reminds of some kirpans I have seen. The kirpan is the traditional ceremonial dagger carried by all devout Sikhs.

I had thought it might be a Kirpan, but I am unsure of what exactly defines one. Other than being a small knife carried by a Sikh, what are their features?
