Khanjar made from old Sabre

I received this today and I have to agree it's just a souvenir albeit an older one. The blade does appear to be from a real sabre, but it only extends about a quarter inch into the hilt. It's held in place by a single pin and there's no tang to speak of. So while the blade won't slip out it does wobble back and forth. That doesn't seem like the kind of design you'd use for a functional weapon.

I imagine somebody took a broken old sabre, cut it into 10 pieces and made it into ten souvenir daggers.
