I asked Khun Bancha about drdavid's blade tang. His suggestion is tang's style 's not old Ayuthaya. Could be 80-150 yo northern Thailand (Lumpang Utaradit or near by cities). The round/spatulated tang tip 's related to some nothern Thailand samples.

Khun Dang 's blade 's difinitly Hua LukKai while Ian 's blade 's something between Hua LukKai and Hua PlaLod. I would like to put this one in Hua LukKai since its little beak might be used in the same way with that of Dahb Hua LukKai, which, I heard from MA, used for jabbing (into opponent 's wrist or arm) and disable one's combat ability.
