Hi Gav, I don't know exactly were to draw the line, but I think it has more to do with the shape, as with the length.
I think this handle is typical a badek, so I would call it a badek!
(I also have seen badeks with complete silver scabbards, though normally decorated with nice motifs).

Just my thoughts though!

Best,
