welcome bancha!

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.

Hey! Thanks for the links! Incase you might like to know, I'm a Thai, too, and I love Thai Krabi-krabong, both with weapon (especially swords) and empty hand!

Oh, I almost forgot! You can call me Knot! That's what they call me in Thai.
