Default Anglo Indian dagger

Good day dear members of the forum,

I bought this interesting dagger,
I thought it was really old but I don't think so anymore:

I found informations on internet about ''anglo indians daggers made for europeans tourists at the beginning of the 20th century.
The hilt is a little different ? Maybe older 19th ?!
I wonder about the blade, I supposed it could be wootz but I read about '' fake wootz pattern'' on these daggers
So I hesitate to sand/etch the blade...🙄
I will receive it soon

Thank you for your comments / advice
