It is a nice blade, but i am not convinced it is that old. Like Drac i would place any knife of this style as post WWII. I don't believe the extra quality necessary places it in an earlier era. It was simply made for a wealthier clientele. Stylistically it is still a more recent piece. There may be another name for these, but i would call it a gunong.
