By my last trip to Indonesia I get a completely rustet stick sword from Solor (see Albert G. v. Zonnefeld, Traditional Weapons Of The Indonesian Archipelago, page 129). I have had removed most of the dark rust. After I have shown this sword to our member Roland M he offered a polish and etch of the blade. So a big "Thank" to him for the great job he have done. The blade show surprisingly a hamon at the edge. This blade is a high quality forged blade. Enjoy the pictures of this very rare weapon.
