Scottish Dirk

I was just givin this knife but I’m my sure who the maker is ,or what the knifes intent is?

I think it’s a Scottish dirk but I’m not sure? Any help?
Here’s the picture of the front

The hilts of Scottish dirks are traditionally carved from dark colored wood. The blades of most Scottish dirks measure 12″ in length and are single edged with decorative file work known as “jimping” on the unsharpened back edge of the blade. When worn, the dirk normally hangs by a leather strap known as a “frog” from a dirk belt, which is a wide leather belt having a large, usually ornate buckle, that is worn around the waist with a kilt. A smaller knife known as a sgian dubh is worn tucked into the top of the hose when wearing a kilt.

I believe what you have is more like a sgian dubh. Check out the link below.

Good luck with your quest of knowlledge!
