Fully Loaded Binangon
so the wife pried me off the couch to go to this antique mall we visit when we're bored. well, she got her some old ceramic jugs.
i found this pretty complete, turn of the century binangon. if this was a honda accord, it would be the top of the line E-X model. scabbard has the shell cover and an unusual locking system in which the disc guard would actually click to this gizmo at the throat. it's made out of carabao horn, similar to the disc guard. the leather throat is gaudily decorated with miniature mirrors, and a red velvet fabric (which have both faded with time). also unusual is the built-on belt that has a coconut button. the disc guard is beautifully carved. |
