Hello dear members,
Not long ago I came across this from the auction house as "African knife" described mandau with brass hilt. The scabbard seems to be a newer replacement, the blade seems to be old, by the handle I am unsure but it seems to have some good age, the pitch ferrule is missing and one of the "knobs" and the rotan binding at the handle is just a fragment. It's the first mandau I've seen with brass hilt! ![]() All comments are very welcome! Which Dayak tribe? Age? |
