Thank for posting this Sajen. I have been looking at similar daggers more than once and had no idea what they were. If I had to guess I would have said North Africa because of the general shape, slightly similar to Bou Sa'adi daggers and the extended pommel, also seen in some Tuareg daggers. South American daggers are not so widely known (except Gaucho knifes) and I have seen several Chilean Corvos (see http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ighlight=Corvo) sold as Indian daggers.
