Wow, very interesting to see the match of the marking along the spine! And the two hollow dots...so maybe that was suppose to be that way? I had thought that along the spine the hollow round holes had contained inlaid brass dots that had fallen out?! Now seeing both Gavin's piece and yours Lew it makes me wonder?!? Intentional?! or missing brass dots? Love it.

I was thinking before that this piece was more Burmese....granted the same/ related tribes are across both borders...and traded amongst each other. Thanks for sharing the pics, Gavin.

Great knife, Lew! Guess I didn't bid high enough! Nah, well great to see you got it and posted about it! You will have to post some pics once you receive it in the mail!

The multiple fullers reminds me of the one dha you have Gavin...I'll let you do the honors if it suits you As I remember you nicknamed it 'the multi- fuller death dealer'?!?!
