Hello Freddy, the wooden ikula is very beautiful!! So we can also continue with the "classic" ikula with handle inlaid?? Sure!! .
If you look at the picture with a close up of the head of the handle you can see a decoration that remembers another decoration known as "Node of Salomon" that is quite frequent also on the Songye sword, knife and axe. I think that is rather interesting to notice as a symbol of Christian - Hebrew type is used also in groups with religious beliefs so different. What do you think about this?
