Default Once more to the breach....

Here is an article on Bahian style faça plus a picture of a Paraguayan. They seem to be copyright free. Even in written form my Portuguese is very flawed, but to my understanding the OP knife seems to have many of the characteristics described. Including the engraved pomegranates. The brass inlays, and the self-bolster. So possibly a northern Brazilian providence? In any case we have not spoken of Bahian blades in many years. Fernando, please elaborate if you feel inclined.
Two last interesting threads and I will put these ideas into my subconscious for a while:
