Very nice barong.

Lovely inlay, but No way I would pay such an amount for a damaged piece without scabbard.
Somebody (or probably a few people) must really have wanted this one.

a remark on kukulza's comments :

Oftentimes African artifacts are not as much, and there is also less hype about them
For African weapons you are probably right.
But African ethnographic items are sold for big $$$.$$$ at autions in Europe.
And than I really mean 100.000's USD
