For the one I present, my thanks to Jeff Pringle for his help in obtaining supporting data on his trip to an LA museum were Pershing gifted many items and thanks too to Bob Fulton for pointing out why the date would be wrong on the tag and how this most likely came to be so.

Not wanting to diverse but I also like spears and this is one of my finest :-)

What a magnificent spear .I was going to post some of my Moro spears, but after seeing your wonderful piece, I decided not to, so instead I'll post another engraved kampilan, that I just rediscovered in my collection.
Once again, thank you for sharing that wonderful treasure !

First, lucky you for "finding" these pieces in your collection. Posting your spears would be nice too.

Gavin, if ever want to throw away that kamp of yours, please let me know (it's on my wish list). I'll now go back behind your dumpster and wait..

Agreed, spears are always nice to view!!!

Battara, stranger things have happened....I am having a major shift of focus and am selling off most of my personal collections....but as yet I haven't drilled down too far other than passing on my Mughal items.
