I JUST BOUGHT IT, I ONLY KNOW TOTAL LENGHT NEAR 11 INCH. SOMEBODY KNOWS SOMETHING?
THANKS IN ADVANCE CARLOS |
Hi Carlos,
Could you post some close-ups of the blade? Since it's a keris-like blade, maybe we can start with the assumption that it's SE-Asian. Of course it could be a lot of other things, including western if made recently. Is the blade stainless or regular steel? The stag could give some clues perhaps, even though it's probably a later handle. The luks seem well forged, following the central ridge quite well...maybe a Filipino piece? Regards, Emanuel |
THANKS

Four luks (curves) ; most Indo keris style blades have an odd number.
This could be a shortened blade but the high polish makes me think non Indonesian. :shrug: |
In my opinion, it's a German hunting dagger. Normally they have a one-edged straight blade.
In Germany, these are called 'Jagdnicker'. |
Surely not Indonesian and doesn't seems to be SE Asian to my asian eyes...:)

It looks like some put this together from old parts of different knives.

IN fact it looks more recent. Some European/American blades have the wavy pattern after 1926. I also think it is a composite and recent like others like this I have seen. Not SE.
