Dajak lance.
 

Just for sharing.
This is an old dajak lance I found last month.
Nothing special, but with great glossy patina on the wooden shaft and a good old one.

PS: It took me a whole day driving to pick it up....Am I the only mad collector around here or are there more amongst us??:confused:
Please tell me if I need to see a psychiatrist....:o

Maurice

Probably

Do you want us to start a fund ?

Nice lance though. Don't see many of these in the UK

Roy

OK Roy, you have my bankaccount allready to start the fund.

Here in the Netherlands they show up once in a while, but the problem is that they need to get picked up because of the shipping of these long things...

They are probably taken long ago by Dutchmen who were situated in Indonesia because they were at the knil-army or because of work at oil companies or other services. I could imagine they took them together with other trophees by boat when they returned home again...

Hi Maurice,

A real nice one. old patina. nothing missing or overcleaned.
Let me know when you get bored of it. I will gladly spent a day picking it up at yours :)

Ps. how long is it ? total length / point.

Best regards,
Willem

PS. These 2 came with it and according to the seller out of the same collection/inheritance.....

But these are not staying, cause my wife doesn't like them at all....

Maurice

I'll keep it in mind Willem!
The total length is 185 cm's.

PS: You can pick up the crocs though if you want...:D

Maurice

Hi Maurice,

nice piece and you have my full understanding that you drive a whole day for it.
When a psychiatrist tell you that you need help, no problem, I will drive a day to take away your burden! :D :D

Regards,

Detlef

Maurice,

Tell your wife when she is really nice those two crocs won't attack her.... :D :D

OK Detlef..:)

Henk, I'm afraid I am more afraid of my wife as for the crocs.:D

I'd contribute money to start that support group... At least a crocodile - unlike my wife - would believe me when I say, "baby, that sword has always been there!" :D

Where did i hear that before :rolleyes:

So do i Maurice, so do i :D :D
