Good morning gentleman,

I am Ernesto Esquivel from Mexico and I am a new member to this furom.
My main fucos are Chinese weapons but I'm still new and learning. One week
ago there was a sword on ebay but was not sure if its Chinese, but the price
went up high. ebay #7 4 0 5 4 7 8 0 8 6, can someone tell me what this is and why it came out high.

Gracias,
Ernesto

Hi Ernesto

Welcome to the forum. The sword in question is an excellent ivory hilted Moro Datu (Chief's) kris from the Philippines. We do not discuss prices on the forum but all I can say is that is one the the nicest ones I have seen in a while. You did good.

Ernesto Ibeam was just joking around.

For you it was an unkown sword but to the rest of the Moro sword collectors it was a very familiar sword.

Hi Ernesto,

I think Ibeam may have meant that for those with an interest in Moro weapons, that piece was an outstanding example that many of us were watching. Welcome to the forum!
