YES I AM SURE YOU SAW SOME OF THE SAME SWORDS I DID, THEY DO HAVE A GOOD SUPPLY OF THEM LOCALLY. THERE ARE QUITE A FEW SHOPS IN THAT AREA AND A LOT OF INTERESTING ITEMS IN THEM. IT IS VERY EDUCATIONAL TO SEE ALL THE THINGS THEY HAVE WHICH RANGE FROM OLD TO NEW, FROM TRADITIONAL TO FANTASY. NOT ONLY WERE THERE DRAGON MANDAU THERE WERE MERMAID MANDAU ALSO I THINK IT LIKELY THAT A LARGE NUMBER OF SWORDS FROM INDIA OR SOMEWHERE ELSE SHOWED UP AT ONE TIME OR PERHAPS SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE YEARS. IT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO KNOW THE STORY BUT WOULD TAKE A LOT OF REASEARCH OF OLD CUSTOMS AND CARGO MANIFESTS TO EVER FIND, AND WHO KNOWS IF THE PAPERWORK STILL SURVIVES.
I ENJOYED BORNEO AND WOULDN'T MIND GOING AGAIN IF I EVER GET THE CHANCE ITS AS HOT AS HOUSTON TEXAS ON A BAD DAY AROUND KUCHING THOUGH, SO IF YOU DON'T LIKE HOT IT WOULD NOT BE PLESANT.
