I cannot believe it was used for execution (decapitation?) purpose. Executioner swords all over the world had two-handed grips and the T-spine is counterproductive on a purely slashing sword. It would only impede a clean cut-through action of decapitation.

Thai executioner always use only one-handed Dahb.



And here are their "tools". (sorry that the page 's in Thai)
