Military Kora -- with scabbard

Bill M · 9th May 2005, 01:15 AM

Well, I wouldn't want to take on an elephant with this --- but it sure could come in handy in a hand to hand fight!

Comments? Possible age, armory marking on the blade? Kind of a neat old piece.

I can't get too excited about these. Balance is wierd. Mostly a chopper. Think that I have it sold to someone it should have gone to in the first place.

This is not an ad to sell it. Long story.

Bill, that's one I'd kill for to ad to my collection (NOT an elephant!), but then again, I'm a chopper rather than a "slasher" (sorry, Freddy **grin**)

Koras,my favorite dinnerware and this one has a nice scabbard with it! The balance is in the balancer. I find them easy to manipulate but have not done any cutting due to age of my pieces. This one has the remains of grip material also.
