the other one i aquired from an aussie in the UK who can't get it thru customs when he returns to oz in the near future.

bit smaller and lighter, the serrated edge has a dished in 'hollow ground' profile, the other striking edges are not flat or rounded but have a sharp tho shallow angled 'edge'. he bought it while in fiji on his way here as a defencive weapon in the 80's... fairly ornately carved of a hardwood, the main part is from the darker heartwood, tho their are streaks of the lighter sapwood showing farther from the centre of the heartwood. feels handy & weaponish. 30" and 600 grams.
