Great knives! Good to see them in this condition.
I have a Kokok (Mak) with the Cambodian attribution on the blade. Also some other features similar to the knives shown here.

Beautiful Dhas! Nicely displayed. Also like that you are watching the humidity. A big factor in deciding how, or if to show.

Not peened. And I just noticed that yours has a butt cap? I'll take a look to see if mine ever did. But I don't think so.

Nice Kukri! Love to see the scabbard. I think the pattern might be a repeated "eye".

Agree with David. I had a similar one for a bit with a horn hilt. I thought it might be 40s to 60s. Nicely made.

I have a spearhead here from the Bikaner Armoury that I thought might be useful for reference. I've liked everything I've seen and handled from Bikaner. Solid, no nonsense weapons.

Bunti wood

Hello. What is recommended to clean and care for Bunti (Banati) wood? Are there any things that help or hinder the grain appearance? Linseed oil? Boiled/raw?
Thank you!
