Question Information Needed On Small Dagger

Small dagger that I just picked up. This one was cost more in shipping than the actual cost of the dagger itself so no great loss if it turns out to be tourist junk. It just had that interesting look to it. Not much information on it other than total length and width of blade. Total length of dagger is 9-5/8 inches, !0-1/8 inches including scabbard. Blade is diamond section and 1-1/8 inches at its widest and seems to have a nice patina. Not sure of thickness as it has not arrived yet. Wood grip with a metal ferrule. Scabbard is wood and looks to show some age. Blade reminds me of a spear head re-hilted as a dagger. Pictures are from auction. Any information on age or possible origin of this will be greatly appreciated.
