Thank you Detlef,
Interesting these images, do you have the the books by Volz? I like all the variations in weapons shown by you. |

This type of Rencong i found on the museum collection of the Met collection where it had the following description:
Dagger (Bade-bade) with Sheath Sumatran, possibly Acheen 16th–19th century This one also has a sleeve different than the crowned versions. And Detlef, your rencong with akha bahar is also a beautiful example. |

Thanks for chiming in, Detlef, while I was experiencing a busy time!
I see where you're coming from regarding a possible Gayo attribution. Martin, could you please provide a pic of the scabbard with the blade inserted (best position)? Also, does it feel like an original fit? BTW, I and Gavin have both volumes by Volz - any additional details you like, Martin? Regards, Kai |
