Thanks everyone.

Rick, thanks for the dhapor information - can you clarify for me what you mean by rebating one edge? Both edges have been sharpened for utility use. Thanks

IP - it actually feels okay in the hand either way round, but I think whoever put it together probably designed it to be used point up, the non-traditional way. They may not have even considered the opposite orientation.

Detlef thanks for the blade ID.
