Brasil-Tramontina gris-gris mchete-3
The sheaths are often wood or sheet metal but sometimes leather. They were popular souvenir items in the Caribbean and Latin America.
I have no idea what the local call them. I call them gris-gris as this is a Caribbean term for "good luck charm."
Albums: Gris-Gris
