Default A Kurdish Jambiya?

Elegant in it's simplicity. A Kurdish (?) jambiya. Monosteel blade, horn hilt, leather over wood scabbard. The chape on the scabbard is interesting to me. It seems to be made from the copper jacket of a bullet that has been fired. You can see the rifling marks all around.
