Things seem a bit slow around here so perhaps i can spark a little conversation with another mystery. Again, at least a mystery to me.
![]() Blade is just under 10 inches (25 cm.) with a very narrow profile. I have nicknamed it "needle" because of that. It get's VERY narrow at the waist (just about one cm). The blade has a bit of a diamond shaped cross section. Hilt is horn. The eyes in the parrot seem to be cut glass, but could be rock crystal. The pendokok i believe is silver. The flashing grain woods on the sheath are quite intense and beautifully arranged. Some folks have suggested to me that this is an anak alang, but if so it is of a dhapur i have never seen on other blades of that category. ![]() All comments are welcome. ![]() |
