Hi Simon,

Here is one of mine, I believe some people think they are Deccani or northern Bengal/Nepal border region in origin.

The various similarities to kukri are hard to ignore. They are usually found housed in carved wooden scabbards similar to those found on "box" kothimora.

I hope that helps.

Kind regards,

Chris
