Hemola from Savu Island (Type E )

Hello Séverin,

I am surprised that nobody comment until now!

A very nice Hemola you get there!

Any signs that the blade is laminated? Was the seller able to tell you more about this sword?
I doubt that someone would be able to distinguish between swords from Savu and Roti, I think that there are not enough examples with clear provenance useful for comparison. But frankly said I don't know if I am correct with my assumption.

Regards,
Detlef
