In he USA, I've seen Hmong knives for sale at markets during large Hmong gatherings during Memorial day, 4th of July and Labor Day.

Thanks for the info. Have you ever seen Hmong knives this small? The other one's I've seen have been much larger. I'm still trying to determine if these were souvenirs or intended for use.
