I watched this on Ebay for months, and the seller and I finally agreed on a price. The throat and chape on the scabbard are unusually heavy. I think they are coin silver but have not been tested by myself. The 6" double-edged blade is thick and laminated. Wood is nice banati. The initials D.C. are carved into the wood of the scabbard. I'm very pleased overall. Any comments and opinions welcomed!

Great gunong Steve, I am glad that you could come to an agreement on price on this and add it to your collection. One day when you are sleeping maybe I'll be able to acquire one with this blade style for my collection.

Nice piece. I especially like the work on the bottom of the scabbard. Looks like 1930s and perhaps Maranao.
