Dha

Haven't seen one of these on the forum for a while so I thought I'd post this latest acquisition.
A Burmese dha, 23 /4" blade.
Looks like a hefty blade, nice fuller.
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Lovely piece. I think I'm seeing signs of lamination or inserted edge in a few of the close-ups. Is that red disk leather? It is an interesting feature I haven't come across before.

Nice Dha :) Thanks for sharing....I agree we are lacking some Dha as of recent.
