Default ottoman or north african dagger ? Age

Hello everybody,

I bought this dagger, in flea market for a good price,
I don't know if it's real or factice...

it seems to have rests of real gold on blade.
the handle has got three small corals stones.

The seller didn't know much about it, he told me it was from 18th century , maybe ottoman turkish or syrian ...

It find it looks a little like kama daggers.

Any Idea about age , origin ?
Does someone recognize on the pictures if the koftgari (? ) is real and if the handle is made of horn.

Thank you

Francesco
