Unusual Piha Kaetta

Aurangzeb · 19th December 2006, 02:54 AM

Hello All!

I was finally able to get my hand on a nice little Piha Kaetta. It is small only 8" total! But it is good quality and well made. The rock crystal hilt is nicely carved and intact. The blade seems a little differant than most. Below is the lick to Oriental-Arms from whom I bought the Knife. Is it true that these were not fighting weapons but rather a fashion excessory. Sri Lankan "Bling-Bling"

Any comments are welcome, better pictures to come.

Mark...
