Hear, hear!

I assume this is the largest number of Pakayun at any place, worldwide?

How many examples are known outside of your collection?

Regards,
Kai

Hi Ben,

Is it possible to move that wall to my home?


I really like the parang to the right at your wall with the staghorn or bone hilt!
I have never seen such a parang.


Kind regards,
Maurice

Very nice collection Ben!!!

Why do you think the short floral-hilted parang is Murut?

Hi Ben,

I think I know which one you mean but I still can't see it?
It would be interesting to have two close ups next to each other to better understand.
Do you see anything else typical Murut on the rest of that parang, except part of the hilt motifs?
