Tourist or treasure?

This is coming up for auction in a few days locally, and while my instincts say "Good, spend lots of money!", I figured I should enquire of you guys first. Looks to me to probably be Ottoman and righteous, the preview description says camel bone and silver, and I think I've seen the roaring-lionhead style pommel before on Yataghans.

Still, I would appreciate any advice about what to look and consider when bidding for when I see it in person later in the week.
