Lumad Sword
Sharing photos of a Lumad Sword.
This must have been collected early on in its life, judging by the condition of the blade and all the accoutrements. The blade has a keen edge with no signs of subsequent sharpening’s. Well cared for by the previous owner(s). The plant roots are dry and delicate, each time it is handled pieces break off. Sword overall length 21.5 in., blade 14.5 in. |

Very nice old Bagobo sword. The bead work is characteristic of the Bagobo style.

That may be the most fun scabbard I've ever seen.
