Vietnamese talismanic knife?

I posted some pictures of this thing on a Thai Amulet message board asking if anybody knew what it was. They said it's just a run of the mill "Meed Mor" amulet dagger. But Meed Mors always have pointy tips to them, so I asked why mine had such an usual shape. They said the tip had been broken off.

Now this thing is about 5mm thick so there's no way the tip could have broken off by accident. It would have had to have been done deliberately. Plus it looks nothing like a traditional Meed Mor knife even with the tip broken off, the shape is just completely different. So I think they just didn't know what it was.
