Hi Ward,
is this a common type of 'tourist' piece, I have never seen one before ( with this type of decoration). One of the characteristics (stated in another thread , mentioned above) is the fact that the 'tourist' type had very thin blades, around 2mm. This particular one has a 1/4" ..approx. 6mm blade...a functional thickness Admittedly thickness is no indication of the quality of the blade.
