that is a very nice looking example of a koumiya. I am no expert on these but like most things I think it is probably easy to find a utilitarian version which would do very well at the village level, and less easy to find a nicer example like yours. I have a village level one which I quite like for its lack of sophistication, the blade is workman like but certainly would be effective for many tasks.
cheers
