Hi guys ,
Long time ago i was active on the forum but i was still lurking ![]() I did find this barong last week and because it is not my normal field of collecting some comments would be helpful. The sheat is big and broad , laminated blad that is still razor sharp. Hilt made of nice wood and good patin on the wood , i have to clean the dirt of. There is some twisted wire around the handle , might be from copper and below the hilt a ring of black stuff it looks like damar but it is different under that there is copper it looks like a sleeve. Maybe the black stuff is just a lot of dirt but i want to make sure first what it is before i clean something that has to be there . This one gives a mighty feeling when you have it in your hand , a good slasher ![]() My questions are; is it a proper one / age / Philippines or maybe Borneo ? regards, Danny |
