Bakunawa oddball?
Please give me some feedback on this odd bolo?
Has anyone a resembling hilt? It seems as if something originally was attached to the lower part of the jaw (see the remaining holes). Michael |

Hello Michael, Something about this makes me wonder if at one point you hilt had a beard (hair tufts) decorating the lower jaw. Just a guess on my part. This is a very interesting piece and I cannot wait the hear what the experts have to say about it.
Best, Robert |
