Not very fancy looking, but I like this one from Sulu.

I found an old barung with missing pommel and scabbard. I decided to have it re-made by pandays and artisans from Patikul, Sulu. I'm pleased with the final product; it's the perfect melding of old + new craftmanship.

Lovely refit Xas. That is also a beautiful etch on the blade too.
A fully authentic Sulu barung, with modern fittings! |

Xas, what type of wood is the pommel carved from?
Echoing Ian's comment on the blades etching. |
