2 TIBETAN KNIVES FOR COMMENT

These blades look very much like the far east Chinese Arctic blades I saw at the Grassi Museum Leipzig . I post a photo on a thread but would not know what the tile was.

This is it. The blade form and decoration seem to fit.

What is the pattern down the fuller? Is it etched or a twist core?

They look like Chinese knives to me, perhaps a minority, but not Tibetan/Mongol.
