Very nice Sajen. The furniture goes well together. Congrats!

Hi Detlef

a very nice pedang you found, I guess the size of the horn is not to bad, to find a replacement tip. I should have a look at Dictum Tools they also have some horn blanks in their webshop. https://www.dictum.com/en/horn-cb/bu...orn-tip-831033

Best wishes, Martin

Cool sword. I find the blade profile on some of these pedangs lurus like yours interesting and distinctive. For some reason they strike me as vaguely insectoid. Is there a functional reason for the widening and minor angle change at mid blade? I think a scabbard tip matching the wood at the throat of the scabbard would look right. Nice topographic pamor.

Hi Jeff,

Also to you thank you for your comments and compliment!

It would be great to know what the foot looked like! To find a matching wood to the scabbard mouth would be a challenge. I am with Martin to use black horn.
No clue why the blade shape is like this, I see these pedangs more as a long dagger for stabbing.

Regards,
Detlef

Hi Martin,

To get a fitting piece of horn wouldn't be the problem, it would be great to know how the foot looked like!

Thank you for the compliment!

Best regards,

Thank you Albert!
It's a small auction house, they offered two blades only, this pedang and a kukri. I don't know if they want to ship to the States.
