It looks Bhutanese, though I have not seen one with so thin a blade.

it looks a lot like mine, discussed HERE (http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=6034)

mine's a bit more distressed. i can see signs of hairpin lamination in yours too....

interesting that the hole in the grip that appears to be missing a stud/rivet is in the same general place as mine. maybe it's a design feature for a lanyard after all?
