DAGGER I.D PLEASE

Royston · 12th September 2008, 02:55 PM

Another one that has been lurking in a drawer for years.
The seller claimed it was Cambodian.

The nearest blade shape that I can think of is a Wedung. The scabbard is old but probably a replacement as it does not look as old as dagger.

The hilt is bone. I can identify Bhudda and Ganesha in the carvings but not any of the others.

Any suggestions as to a name and origin would be welcome.

Regards
Royston
