btw how long have you had that Jambiya? Did you buy it or is it a family heirloom. I have heard that some Indonesian families have Yemeni ancestry. IF so then it is possible it is Rhino. It does look a bit like Rhino and not like normal horn. Any ways repeat the test as in the pic below. If you see the orange glow, you are in luck.

Salaams BANTARU.. That was a great explanation of the light test. I agree the hilt is Rhino at #1.
Rhino was commonly used on Yemeni daggers.
