It looks like it,s a gamble week
![]() I also did take a gamble on marktplaats here, i recieved it today . the wranka is nothing, to damaged. but the blade and the hilt are a good gamble. the blade is now in a bath for de-rusting. i.m not sure if the blade is a madurese or east javanes. pamor is ujung gunung and on the other side maube a batu lapak but i have to clean it first . danny |

Certainly a gamble that paid off. How bad is the sheath? The pictures don't show...

Looks like the blade has an ujung gunung pamor at the base. Quite unusual for a non-Bugis/Malay blade, I thought.

Hi Guy,s,
Yes i stained it quite quick, the solustion is strong so it don,t take a lot of time. the rust was also easy to remove. There is Ujung Gunung on both side,s , but it won,t come out verry clear , i don,t know why? it,s a pitty. Here some photo,s of the sheat . |
