There are only 3 choices - wall hanging, decoration or symbol signifying some kind of event, i.e. x-number of killed, etc. It'd be a difficult guess, since it can be ANY of those. I also have a Yataghan with hole in the center of the blade, and it is definitely not for hanging on the wall - because of the ears:-) and it is drilled in a special manner, so I preclude it was made for decoration purposes. I could not find an original owner's manual, so again - just a guess:-)
