Nice to see a genuinely laminated blade, most certainly first quarter of the 20th century. The handle looks to be quite large, for a European hand perhaps?I've personally not seen one like this in the flesh, though I have seen acid etched blades that look like laminations and sometimes the 'Buddhas' Eye' pattern, particularly this style of Kukri, with a 'Sirupate' blade and carved ring on the handle.
