It's a Chainpuri if you ask me. Look at the pommel or end cap. It's not there... Just a decrotive diamond around the tang stud. I have a Purna Chainpuri and its identical. Even the fuller design is the same. I dunno but 80% it's a Chainpuri.

I'll second that ND. I can't justify it either-my 19" Rajkumar Gelbu is in no way lacking, so this department is covered.

I noticed the end cap missing and kinda like that look. I noticed the weight was a little higher too so your probably right. Sure is pretty. I dont have a Chainpure...your not makin it any easier to hold back;)
Looks like it has a bit less drop too.

My Purna Chainpuri is awesome, it hides it's weight very well. The balance is really blade heavy which creates a devistation snap cut. The handles are the best part. My horn example feels like liquid glass in my hand. Very slick and smooth but not so much that it's slippery. You need one my friend.
