Careful and interesting pamor work. A pity about Kembang Kacang, looks like a repair/replacement.
Is the hilt within the standards of good malayan workmanship? Is it being cleaned in some way? Last edited by Gustav; 3rd June 2010 at 10:36 PM. |

Sorry, the hilt doesn't look like ivory/gading. From the pictures I would guess Tridacna at the carvings coloured.
Very nice blade! |
