I do understand how threads evolve, but i am not quite sure how we got for these little utility knives to these long pattern welded daos, so i would like to try to steer thr thread back to the original type of knife in question.
Frankly the constuction and materials used in the Bao An knives that ZhenjieWu posted seems very different from both the knife that started this thread and my own which i already linked to:

...so i am inclined to believe that these knives are NOT Bao An, but perhaps Tibetan as they have also been IDed as.
