Naga Axe

Does anyone know if the Naga axe (metal blade) been in existence before the 19th century, or is it an "early" object (i.e. 19th century) creation/introduction?

Time to dig up an old thread !
May i ask you all, do you have any informations about the Kalyo-Kangyu tribe and their axe/way of smithing ? I tried to find informations about them on the net without any touch. (the only pages coming up are the vikingsword forum and the MET).
Do you have any recommandation of book concerning them ? is there any infos about them in the two books mentionned above ?
