Hello Max,

nice blade and very nice handle but I think the scabbard is wrong for this blade.

Regards,
Detlef

Thanks for the feedback.

I have goggled and see that most scabbard has the square look. I have asked the collector and his opinion is that the scabbard tends to the the choice of the owner (like choosing a dress) preference... The current scabbard looks like one for the Tajong. Not sure if it's due to the preference from Patanni?

I am not sure ...

One more point to add is that I have seen one collector having a Toa Chu blade but fitted with the Tajomg hilt and scabbard...

Is that acceptable?
