Extraordinary I have to agree with Lew. Okay one is rather long but both are not rare, every day things really and poor, very poor like some of the bad African stuff {sadly a have to admit there are some} I do not think it is a good thing. Rather like very common and nothing special or rare or craftsmanship kaskara, Kukri, dha, talwar and so many others just turn out to be a waste of money. perhaps I am just a sad old man.

No Tim

You are a realist and a savy collector I just picked up that real nice Luzon bolo with silver fittings and I would consider that a special item due to the overall quality of the bolo and rarity of the silver. I paid half of what these more common(less rare)types went for and I still thought I overpaid. Like I said before someone with a lot of cash and not too much experience in the collecting field I think? He will learn fast and realize not to throw his money away so easily.

Oh Louie, either post it or bring it to Baltimore.
