Mandauhandle with iron windings?
Hi,
Lately I bought this mandau. All I know about this mandau is that it was brought back by an american serviceman in WWII. It has a sort of 'iron' winding on the handle. I know it can be ratan or copper but I never saw this ironwindings. It looks original to me, but I'm not sure. Is there anybody who knows if the dayaks used iron for this handle-windings? Are there other sorts of windings and can you post pictures of it? Regards, Maurice |
