The wonderful thing about "dha" is that it corrrectly refers to anything from Burma with one edge.

Anyway, this is a dha, more precisely a dha-hmyaung (roughly translated as "dagger," as opposed to "knife" with its more utilitarian meaning). Its hard to say which part of Burma it is from, but they are most often used in North and northeast of Burma.

It looks like a nice piece.
