Default Afar Jile for comment
Am I correct in believing this to be an Afar Jile? I found it listed as a kukri on the eplace and picked it up cheaply.

It isn't large: 12.5" overall; 8" blade.
Can anyone tell me the significance, if any, of the punch marks on the blade? One wild thought I had was symbolic representation of magic squares.

Cheers, Russel
