Default My first Kampilan

Also my first auction experience. Very exciting! Bought it at the Auctions Imperial last night at the Timonium show. Nice blade, thick at the hilt. It has some light power sanding marks, but they will come out with a polish. I'd love your comments.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,

beautiful Kamp! I was one of the low online bidders on this one. I love the reddish wood with the nice grain.
Congrats to your first Kampilan, I am curious to see the blade etched. Do you plan to give him back his eyes? See here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...light=kampilan

Regards,

Detlef

NOW YOU ARE AN EXTREME MORO COLLECTOR!!
YOU HAVE JUMPED FROM THE SMALLEST MORO BLADES TO THE LARGEST.
CONGRADULATIONS, LOOKS LIKE A VERY NICE OLD ONE, I ESPECIALLY LIKE THE WOOD AND PIERCED TIP.
