Picked up this little pig-sticker on my last trip to Bangkok. The dealer was insistant it was Laotian. Handle is 7" and the blade is 25 1/2" spine is 7/16" at the guard. Extremely solid. Small guard is partially open. Definately a different configuration than most dha and darb that I've seen. What do y'all think?

The blade shows some use as does the guard which has been cracked by what looks like a blow travelig down the blade.
