Ban Lepcha Sword

Yours is nicer than mine, they are utility knives & weapons on necessity.
Mine has a razor sharp edge. Quite a heavy blade too. I suspect they are hairpin laminated steel.



They come from an area near Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan. I posted a picture of a traders shop with these for sale with other knives somewhere on the forum...it's along one of the common trade routes there.
