Any more pics to salivate?
I bet them chop like Demon.
I've got some other pics on here somewhere, I'll see if I can get you a few that give better measurements.
Yes it absolutely out-chops it's size. The Ghopte (humpback I think was the translation) is an overlooked design that is almost a grs but has a slightly different profile. It changes the weight placement, makes it very easy to manage but hard hitting. I had it made by Durba as a carry piece, hoping the pronounced curve would offset the lack of size. It works so well it is still a favorite carry-camp blade almost eleven years after getting it.
