SE Asia Knife # 2
Second one of a group of five knives, this is about 9" / 22 cm long in the scabbard, the hilt is carved ivory in the shape of an elephant figure, Ganesha. Definitely Thai, there is inscription on the blade in the Pai Buddhist script so I'm sure another monk knife. I think the scabbard is teak, with silver bands.
