The grip is most definitely not horn or bone, so nice catch. If there is a date on the blade that would be great, but just based on blade shape I believe this could easily be from the second half of the 18th century. The band between the grips and the bolster look like a replacement. As for origin, let's just call it Ottoman to be safe (yes, I know, this is as general as it gets).
