Greetings Bancha Thongkomol!
Thanks for sharing your photos.
I'm becoming intrigued by the shape of the Thai swords and wonder how they handle in test cutting, dhafia beware...lolz
Don't worry about your English, you are communicating fine, we are for the most part collectors, learning and sharing, also.

Thumbs up Welcome ...

Bancha.

Thanks for posting these pictures and the link to the Thai Blade Forum (unfortunately I don't read Thai). Very interesting pictures of some old blades. Do you know from which parts of Thailand these blades came? Is it possible that a couple of them may be Cambodian in origin?

Look forward to seeing more of your collection.

Regards,

Ian.

Bancha,

Very nice daab! Those of us who collect them are always hungry for information - about age, about styles, about manufacture. It is great to see such a nice historical collection as yours.
