Unusual Malay Pusaka !!!
I got this unusual Pusaka Item from Perak, Malay Peninsular.Length 32 inches, circumference 6 inches (size of a moderate rough ivory) and weighs about 30 kilos. It looks very hinduism to me resembling either a long Tombak or should I say a Pillar. I wouldnt say its functional as a tombak due to its heavy weight, perhaps something else. Laminated metal (thousands of layers, I think) Does anybody know about this item? Thanks in advance for your views.
