Ethnographic Arms & Armour - View Single Post - Interesting kaskara with brass hilt and rounded tip

Just in case my initial post wasn't clear, I didn't win it (or even bid!), but the sale price inclusive of premium was £2,160.

More than a little out of my league. I'm not even sure if the price wasn't more for the throwing knives... I gather they are quite rare.

Any thoughts on on regional or ethnic classification for the sword? I find it quite different visually to the examples usually encountered, particularly the blade geometry.
