Tausug barung?
Came across this barung in the Philippines last weekend and didn't pick it up as I felt the price was too high. What do you guys think of it? Definitely 20th century (circa WW2 I believe) with good weight and the right balance. The hilt is kalabaw (water buffalo) horn. The handle looked quite new, which made me hesitate.
