Rencong for comments
Hello,
I just aquired a few new blades and among them is the rencong in the photos. Both, hilt and scabbard, appear to be made of bone and the blade, while strong blade is integral with the bolster. The blade was obviously heavily corroded and roughly cleaned so I cannot discern any traces of lamination. Total length in scabbard is 37 cm (14.6"). Blade length is 17.5 cm (6.9"). Any comments will be welcomed! |
