Better pictures would help, but I think it's from Mongolia.

Scabbard looks very Mongolian. Their dress knives have lots of silver on them.

I agree with Mongolia.

Could the blade be a European trade blade?

If you'd like (and you can produce more pictures) I can show it to some older Mongolian gentlemen to see what they think.
