The leather scabbard looks like profesionally done, to compare the grip and blade it looks like homework, question remains how long it was together.

And leather is pretty soft suprisingly

Hi Jonkichotas. Welcome to the forum. I saw this on Facebook and wondered if it was a modified M1917 Trench Knife. The triangular blade appears the same and one side of the cross guard is turned downwards like yours. Could the knuckle duster / guard have been removed and the wooden handle / grip been replaced?
