Default wahabite(?) dagger for comments

Hello gentlemen,

I bought this old dagger,
I think it's called a wahabite dagger (?)
I wonder if it is a Yemeni model and how old it can be ?

( for me, late 19th, beginning of the 20th century... )

I found really nice the silver work
the blade is sharp, thick in the middle and seems a forged model .

Interesting too the crescent and stars carved stone ( cornelian ? )

Nice surprise for the hilt, not wood,
I don't think it's rhino but it is made of horn with an interesting wavy structure.

What do you think ?

Kind regards
