Mandau for review
I got this mandau recently. It is a complete set, with pisau raut and scabbard. Scabbard for pisau raut is made from piton skin.
The handle is a horn with 2 Dutch 1/10 guldens, years 1910 and 1920, both worn at the rims as if they were long on the handle. The blade is with an eye and some decoration and it is quite sharp, can cut a paper without a problem. Pisau raut is sharp as well. This mandau is lighter, shorter and less thick than parang Sumba that I have. |
