In regards to my previous questions perhaps we are having a language problem. I am not questioning whether this bendable metal is a possibility. My question is WHY would you want to create a blade that would bend like this. It just seems impractical and i don't understand what purpose it serves to create such a blade.

Tumbang Anoi declration is a peace tractact among Dayaks people.. previously amongs dayak, or village we still headhuting each other for several reasons.. but since that was a milestone for a Dayak united.. as previously we dont use dayak to identify ourself but from the river/village..


Back to mantikei.. Its not we created that this metal will bent.. but it is inherit properties of this metal.. and this what my ancesstor found in ther location..
