Info on Sewar / Tumbok Lada with Crown?

Sajen · 14th April 2010, 03:07 PM

Hello Erik,

I would call it Sewar, look for this inside the book from van Zonneveld. The blade of a Tumbok Lada is broader. I have also one with a crown at the handle and I think that these examples for higher ranking people. About the origin I can't say something. Here examples from my collection for comparison.

Regards,

Detlef

Detlef,

Yours with crown looks great! Seems to be a high quality old example!

Regards, Erik

Hi Erik and Detlef,

The pieces you have with crown are wonderfull pieces to look at.
I like those little daggers a lot!
I have had one but it is now in another forummember's collection and I'm sure he doesn't mind when posting an image of it.
It has also a crown, but it is not a silver one, but a crown carved in the horn.
