Unknown weapon

A few days ago I was able to acquire this rattan knife, I think it's Cambodian. The handle was lacquered and it was not easy to find the correct thinner to remove it. It is 48 cm long with a blade from 19,5 cm which is 13 mm thick behind the "habaki". The last picture shows it together with another knife from Cambodia, it was once shown here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...highlight=enep
Now I am of the opinion that it is Cambodian as well.

Like usual, all comments are very welcome.
