A Lovely Indonesian Parang With An Amazing Pedang Lurus Style Hilt

[Ian]

Lovely sword Charles.

Battara, I think this is more likely to solder work, creating a solid silver foundation for the grip, rather than repousse that might dent and damage from handling.

Seems like a lot of silver in this hilt--how heavy is the sword, Charles?

Also the blade is unusual for these, no? I like this blade than the usual blades found on these.

Congrats!
