Hi Battara,
On what details is your assessment based (originating from the Jolo area vs. Sulu archipelago in general)?
I haven't seen such an angled hilt with 20th (or even later 19th) century pieces. Is this an obsolete construction style or just very rare? I like this quite a bit (and am partial to "small" kakatua pommels anyway). How does it handle, Punal?
Regards,
Kai
