Here my small collection of sangi knives for your enjoy, the one in the middle is "new"!

Of course new in my collection.

That's a great little grouping you have there Detlef and my congratulations to you on its newest addition. This is another style of knife that I have not yet been unable to add to my own collection. Oh well, sooner or later I will find one with a price that will let me be able to fit it in despite my ever shrinking budget.

Best,
Robert

Thank you Robert. Sadly this knives seems to be rare and pop up seldom on the market but I am sure that you will find one one day for a good price.

Here is a specimen

Sajen · 2nd April 2014, 09:23 PM

Hello Nonoy,

very nice example!

Maraming Salamat Nonoy Tan! This scabbard looks older to me - no later than say the 1930s. Is the knife itself original to the scabbard?

Beautiful piece in any case.

Thanks Detlef and Jose.

The knife and the scabbard have a museum number on them, and likely came together when they were accessioned some time in the past.

The elaborateness of the scabbard matches the quality of the blade which is thicker than all others I have encountered.

Here are a couple more images.

Nonoy, may I ask you how thick the blade is?

Thank you,
Detlef
