Sickle Knife, India ???

Hello everyone and thank you all very much for your help in identifying where this is from. Timo, is there any way that you could post a picture of the example that you have for comparison? With the blade looking to be very heavy and thick I thought that it could very easily be used as a weapon. The ones that are normally seen here in the states have very thin blades and though they could also very easily be used as a weapon they would certainly not be my first choice if having to use a farm tool. Again my thanks to all who have responded to my questions and I will post new pictures after this has arrived and I have had a chance to do a little cleaning on it. Would anyone like to make an estimate on the age of this item?

Regards,
Robert
