like robin stated, it is walrus and as can bee seen often as well with yataghans this kind of discoloration does happen. Nothing to worry about at all !
It is a very fine dagger you have, my compliments !
would take care of the scabbard ; polish it with some oil to it, to avoid drying out and splitting. This will also feed and preserve it.
Similar with the walrus handle / grip for a good conservation and visual improvement!
