Very nice Detlef. Typical Tjikeroeh style decoration on the blade (interesting to see the name further down on the blade when it's usually on the ricasso--perhaps an earlier style?). I like the short back edge on this one. Very good example all round.

A rather new addition to the collection, nicely carved horn handle, black wooden scabbard, with horn mouth and foot, horn bands, belt loop missing, roughly forged blade. Rather short with 52,5 cm inside scabbard, 46,8 cm without, blade 34,5 cm and 6 mm thick behind the handle. Mid. 20th century?

Thank you for comment! ![]() The black spots lying deeper as the polished surface and shows the bare metal, there are also scratches but I think they are from the original processing. There have been surface rust which I have removed. So I think that it is from the WWII area, maybe a little bit more early. Regards, Detlef |
