What a lovely kamp! Congrats and thanks for sharing this. This one is the most complete of these partially silver covered ones I have seen.
Is the blade etched and laminated? Charles asks a good question (  ).I do love kamping!

charles, i don't see anything to suggest that it the silver ornaments were added after. IMHO, it was born together. agewise; not too keen about kampilans, but i would guess it to be around late 1800's

WOW
Another great looking kampilan. If anymore silver shows up I'm going to have to start wearing shades to keep from hurting my eyes.
