Here is one that I picked up a couple of years ago. It has a more deeply clipped blade than most. Length 11.5 inches: blade 7.0 inches, hilt 4.5 inches. Definitely made for a small hand, perhaps for a woman.

The so-called Spanish notch is found on knives among several former Spanish colonies, including the Canary Islands, Philippines and Argentina--probably more if we looked hard.
