Two piha kaetta knives
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			Hello dear members, 
 
I wanted to show you these two Piha kaetta knives, 
( they were sold in an auction house as kukris, really low initial price  ...) 
 
Sold as a pair but they are not similar, 
Elegant but simple decorations, ( Ivory hilt I guess)  
 
have they the same age ? 
They looks pretty old but maybe it's because the steel blades were not well preserved ! 
 
I like these black heavy blades , 
but I read that blackened blade match with a not good quality steel ?? 
 
Sadly no scabbard, 
but I think the knives are complete, 
no loss of brass, silver parts on the blade... 
 
What do you think ? 
 
Kind regards
