Two sickle knives from India (?) for identification

Top one looks like a bank.

Nope: Completely different blade & hilt.

I'd broaden the search range for this piece to all over Southeast (and central?) Asia, too.

Hello Kai,

I doubt a Southeast Asian origin because the "mail piercing" tip of the blade, never seen something like this from SEA. But like always I can be wrong.
