Maurice and Willem,
Thank you both for your replies and explanations. What i learned is that i have to look closer. With your explanations i see now the quality of the blade. Borneo is going to become a field of study to get some more insight in these fascinating weapons.
Years ago i thought Borneo was a bushy island with Dayaks and a mandau was a mandau. Reading the comments of both of you in the past I know now that Borneo is divided in areas with different tribes with all kind of weapons with their own specific appearances.
I thought Willem, Maurice was infected by your fascination of Borneo and the weapons from that part of the Archipello. Can we say that the student reached the level of the master and passed him?
