Bolo just ended in Ebay

Hello Carlos, Yes this does have what looks to be a very beautifully carved water buffalo horn hilt. It is a shame however that it seems as though both sides of the guard have been be broken off. The scabbard even if it is in poor condition is at least still there as most are completely missing. The fitting to me look to be made of brass and not silver though I could very easily be wrong. I was watching this and planning on placing a bid later in the auction when it suddenly ended. Are you by chance the one who ended up with this very nice item? If you are, my congratulations to you for your new addition to your collection.

Best,
Robert
