Hello,
I found two sets of two knives, I think its made from Laos or Burmese or Thaïland.
The hilts are made in horn for ones and bone or ivory for the seconds. Its have a silver ferule and the scabbard is made with wood covered with silver.
Total length :in the scabbard 8,2"
just the knives 7,3"
The blades 3,2" and very sharp
Its was patined with black color, I cleaned its, it's possible its are a tourist souvenir, I don't know, I never seen this type of knives, its look like a very small Dha
If someone can help me for the identification of its?
Thanks in advance, and one more time, I'm sorry for my very bad english.
