Just received this Punal. The overall length is 17 1/4", with a 12" pattern welded blade. The ferrule and guard are horn, and the handle looks like banati. I haven't ever seen one this large, except for modern tourist pieces, but I've only been collecting for a couple of years. Is one this large common? It's more like a short sword than a dagger. I put a more normal 9 1/4" punal in the picture for scale. Thanks for looking.
