It is a collection of parts roughly put together. Likely within the past several years.

I am afraid I see the same thing as Ariel: an authentic, late 19th century blade, put in a newly made tin scabbard, adorned with random pieces taken likely from old jewelry. Hard to tell if the hilt is original to the blade or a recent replacement.
