Batak or Dayak Knife?
Hi,
Is this familiar to anyone? Perhaps for baby hair cutting or ceremonial? Cheers. |

Hello Oraiff,
It's Batak! Not sure about the age!? Regards, Detlef |

Only akin Batak style - most likely not for genuine use within the culture.
These pieces usually got made for sale to outsiders in a colonial setting. Regards, Kai |
