Well it is a little small. The figure is about 15.5 cm (six inches) high. But I think, from the shape of the end of the blade, it is my first Jimpul.
![]() ![]() Can't tell if the blade is flat or whatever. ![]() ![]() Opinions???? ![]() ![]() Wonder if I will get more views than responses????? ![]() |

Just happened upon it with one minute and 40 seconds to go! Still got into a bid and counterbid with someone.
Will ask Arjan if he knows how old, but suspect that Lew is right. Deco period 1930's or so. |

Very nice Bill.

here another with a suberb inlayed blade,
the blade has very nice scrollwork (and a repair) the scabbard has also the same knots as a "real" one. (aviable at www.thehornbill.com) |
