Hello to all
think you this knife, in my opinion it would be of Chinese origin

It is 27 cm long, blade 18 cm

Not my area of collecting but from what I have seen here and at other places I would agree.

Regards,

Detlef

Yes Chinese or even Vietnamese circa 1935-45 due to the brass ferrules having no seam could have been made from ammo casings? Here are a few that I had at one time the smaller one is Vietnamese.
