Interesting knife
Anyone know where/when this knife came from?
Looks cool. 😉 I'm guessing India... |

This looks like yet another of the always confusing Malawi 'Yao' knives.

I think it has been heavily cut down, does it have a T shaped back? I keep seeing Northern India with the bolster.
Definitely a worthy find. |
