A Western style dagger

[David R]

Yesterday, Sunday 10th April I went to a local militaria fair and picked up a few new (to me) items, all small and inexpensive.... A rarity nowadays and ever harder to find.
This one was one of a bundle, so impossible to say what it cost individually. It's nicely finished, and may be a bit of a "shotgun job" or an assemblage. The thick leather scabbard I am pretty sure was cut down from a longer one. The dagger itself, could be one of those Victorian hunting knives, or an anti-garroters defence, or even a private purchase trench dagger. Some parts look to have been together for some time.
Comments and suggestions welcome. There are no marks or stamps visible.

Nice dagger! The crossguard and pommel are highly distinctive but unfortunately I don’t recognize them. The diamond cross section of the blade makes it more for thrust than cut, so I would describe it as a dagger rather than a hunting knife. With the brass details, pommel and horn handle a wild guess would be that it could be filippino?

Googling ”filippino dagger” I found: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=23770 and pic below. They seem generally to have straight crossguards though.
