Easyerb Sword - (Tibet?)

[kronckew]

The grip on mine is the original style. Please note that discussion to items on active actions is prohibited and the mods may delete it.

It does confirm my earlier supposition that the sword is Tibetan, (and not shortened) somewhere nearby, Sikkim, eastern Nepal maybe, look very much like a Ban sword for its shape, wonder if it's from Lhadak..? The style is like a Lepcha ban, same shape, same size, just different, maybe for some ceremonial practice, festivals, etc…or maybe just a nobleman's status piece that remains a useful weapon justincase.
