These rounded, rather spatulate forms of dha/daab are interesting. There is a fair bit of variety. There is also a form with a rounded tip and a small pointed protrusion. I have an example but need to dig it out of the archives.

Wayne, I was told by a well known British dealer in dha/daab that this blade form is found on old Thai machetes. I also have an example of this form and will post it here.
