Good one Andrew but I think Charles had brought these up in a past thread? I just can't find it :(. Here is a link to a past thread. They look similar :) .

Hello Lew,

handle look like made from kemuning wood. When it is I would agree that it come from SEA.

The dagger arrived the other day. The hilt had a bad split near the blade :(. I was able to repair it and etched the blade which blued it. The blade is mono steel.
