What is happening where I have marked? What do these copper inserts look like on the back of the blade? Is this a modified blade? I hate saying that kind of thing but this does look to me, some kind of Indonesian or Borneo product. It could be Indochina? I do believe freddy post a knife with very similar handle amd blade some years ago.
