A VERY NICE EXAMPLE AND FIRST CLASS GRADE ONE. I AGREE WATER BUFFALO HORN HANDLE , SILVER AND BRASS FITTINGS WITH THE FLORAL INLAY DESIGN IN THE BLADE. ITS NICE TO HAVE THE SHEATH IN SUCH GOOD SHAPE AS WELL. ONLY THE SECOND RAMS HEAD POMMEL I AM AWARE OF. IT WOULD CERTAINLY BE WELCOME IN MY COLLECTION.

Have received the bolo and I am more as happy with my buy. Only a tiny piece of the rams horn missing on one side. The blade I've cleaned only with a rubber gum for removing rust and steel wool 000 grade and polished the silver and brass. The hilt received an oiling with flax oil. Here some pictures for your enjoy.
