nice footage. i believe its a different system from the thai oneComment

I am only guessing as I have never studied Laos sword, I would say there must be similarities with some old daab systems just like there is a close link between Burmese swords and daab Lanna, I guess Laotian sword must have some features that are unique.Comment

Thanks, George
That was really quite beautiful. In my thinking, there are far more similiarities in SE Asian martial arts than differences, particularly in weapon work.Comment
