With pleasure!
The proportions of the knives are not respected, sorry. The second one is very long and narrow ( sorry, I don't have the measurements here, but it is easy to compare), when the first one is 47cm x 3,2cm.
I do think that sharpening modified the shape of the blades and we should not be too dogmatic when considering a "pure Paiwan shape"…
