Bichaq Tourist or authentic?

The hilt workmanship on this one varies a lot from the sheath which is an unknown material, essentially one piece construction and lacks the quality of the dagger. What region, did it originate from ? What do the five point stars circle, etc. mean? At first, I thought the fact that the silver work hid some marks on the blade that the blade was are a replacement.
Now it seems the blade is right; but, the sheath is either very regional or much later. Your comments and input is welcome.
Thanks, Steve
