I have been looking for a Malay sundang with a unique bird pommel for a long time...since VVV introduced them to me many years ago. They have, until recently, been most elusive, but with Maurice's help I was finally able to acquire one. Here it is after some clean-up and minor restoration.
The hilt is nicely dressed and the pommel well carved from horn. The blade is typically well executed and chiseled and features a rather unique 1.25in. rib reinforcing the end of the blade and point. It is really a most welcomed and prized piece! Input welcome. Dimensions: Overall length: 24.25in. Blade length: 19.75in. Average blade width: 1.25in. |
