It looks to me similar to the Chinese Yan Yue Dao.

Default Thai fighting sticks

I have had these a long time. I bought them in the UK as " Thai Fighting Sticks"

Dimensions are, Blades 11 inches with a 13 inch hilt.
Hilts are wood and silver. These have never been sharpened.

During my years working in the Far East I once saw a demonstration using these, somewhere around the Chaing Mai area in Thailand .
Very impressive, each combatant used two and the sparks did fly !

Regards
Roy
