Thumbs up Thank you - So many Gunong!
So many beautiful and functional gunong! I am very pleased to see this fine pictures and hope they will become a reference for others. The mother-of-pearl hilt is especially wonderful.

Best,

Dave A.

Hello Steve (Tito Gunong),

very addictive, I am afraid that I am hooked on them already.

A beautiful collection Detlef. When you receive the restored Gunong from Robert, it would be great to see a group photograph.

Thank you Russel,

Jose has restored the other gunong, just for clarification. Will post a group picture when I have received it!

Best regards,

This gunong will enter the small family of my collection soon. I think it is from around 1910-1920 with half waved blade and silver fittings. 10" or 25,4 cm inside scabbard with a blade from 6,25" or 16 cm.

Thank you as well Dave. Hope that it will be a little help for others to place their own pieces!

Hello Jose,

this would be to much honor! Steve's collection is outstanding and was my main inspiriration but the time is gone that you can buy so many by low prices.
