Sundang Bisaya
Heeding Vandoo's call to arms.
I picked this one up a month ago. Sadly the hilt has a huge crack on one side but not so bad on the other. Hilt carved from horn, I'm suspecting that the octagonal ferrule is brass. It's on the small side at 20 inches overall with a 15-1/2 inch blade. The blade is pretty hefty at the forte at 3/8 inch thick. The blade is sharpened on both sides. It's a nice little chopper. |
