I am with Trenchwarfare, I don't have a clue but this is a very nice pair. Vietnam (?) maybe.

What is the used material for the handle butt?

Detlef

it is bone I think, the wood looks like a nice rosewood or it is just stained reddish brown-- all the fittings are still good

I see the bolster/blade junction style likeness to Corg otherwise but to me look 100% sacrificial from Bengal...
