G'day Peter, just to be clear this is a knife that was passed as an AInu knife in an auction.
I have not had the pleasure of viewing anything from the Brooklyn museum other than what I have seen in print.
Thank you very much for pointing out what the piece is though and I am glad I refrained from bidding and I can adjust my notes.
I look forward to viewing your blades when the chance comes along.
Gav
