Did this serve the purpose of a fancy utility knife? I.e. chores/chopper/self defense?

 I was asking for clarification. I have noticed that many opinions on the forum have evolved in the last 13 years

Congrats, Detlef!
You got the typical LP with bolster as well as now the variant type without! These blades tend to be a bit rough; this may be partly due to their ceremonial use and sometimes due to their age... Regards, Kai |

P.S.: Any indication whether the metal extension/tang out of the pommel possibly got bent later rather than originally?

I think as well that some in this thread showed examples have a very good age, one reason that nearly all show a lot of wear with missing parts. But we don't know exactly all the ceremonial fields of application which can harm the blade!? Or do you know more? Regards, Detlef |
