Should I file this as a Piha Kaeta?

I think that it's a simple Phia Kaeta indeed!

I have a very similar one but it's for sale so I can't show it here.

Thanks for the feedback and good luck with your sale. I never considered there might be different grades of these knives and was only familiar with the evolution of the knives from the earlier pieces with pronounced blades to the latter examples where the decorative panels overtook much of the blade, and finally where the expensive handle material is reduced to buffalo horn.
