A Silver Khanda

Now that I have this type of sword, I've been wondering something for a while now. Why is it that some khandas (what I personally consider "true khandas" compared to related swords like patissas, firangis, and other types of khandas) have these ridges along the blade that are of uneven sizes? And what about the spike at the end of the of the pommel? Is it actually meant to be a secondary hand hold in battle?
