Another ebay item. Smallish (knife size) garab/talibon with dropped edge and high shinogi/relieved spine/swedged (bevelled) spine, curved blade. Top of sheath is wood, but seems to be carved in imitation of the hide-wrapped sheath tops, and with a projecting "nose" to catch the belt. Almost forgot to tell youse the ebay #: 6503729424
