One thing does strike me as a little odd...the largest scabbard fitting is typically seen as a chape mount or mouth mount. Sorta unusual to see it there, but again, just may be a matter of the owner's taste.

The octagonal handle 's not uncommon for this region.
This example is a recently made lanna knife.
