This knife is more interesting in close photos. 19th century ottoman/balkan artwork! Silver with copper. The hilt it is far more important from my first thought. The scabbard is lower artwork.

You have to clean it a little. Some baking soda with little water and a toothbrush will do it shiny in few minutes. Dry it well after. Also the blade would appreciate some oil.

I will wait Eftihis to post a photo of Montenegro knife to compare, but I assume he is right.
