Hi Lew,
It seems a good origin !! I were, always interested to the mark on the blade. Someone knows something about it ? Paolo |

Great to see this example. I have one without a scabbard that I thought was Eastern Chinese/Tibetan/Bhutanese. It's nice to see i was close, but even nicer to know exactly what I have.
You mention that yours is mono-steel. Are you sure? Mine has Tibetan style hairpin folding, and it seems as though yours might as well. Josh |
