The top one here is Sumatran and the bottom one Thai or Burmese.

The blade profile of the bottom one is slightly closer to yours.

Charles,

thank you for showing this two nice knives. The bottom one seems to belong to the same family also when the blade profile is different, beautiful example with the ivory handle and the blade lamination.
