But, Bill, it appeared on TV -- in Australia. It MUST be worth a lot if it's been shown on TV.

Could be, but hard to say with such a small image.
BTW, that is an unusually large barung and hardly qualifies as a concealed weapon -- wonder how he got close enough to do any damage without being detected carrying such an obvious weapon. |

Not sure he did. They could be bullet-marks, or dirt, or whatever, but they sure could be....On further examination I think what's on the blade might be blood......

Yeah, blood and/or glop; possibly even mud from the ground; I can't decide how wet it looks; maybe some staring............I originally started examining the blade surface in hopes the lines were etched lamination; wouldn't that be interesting in an old photo?........

Ground looks fairly dry; them shoes are pretty clean. Maybe he did get his slice on.

It does look like a full length rattan skin wrap.
