Balinese Sickle ?

[Royston]

Please excuse this thread if it all appears wrong. This is my first attempt at using a Mac and my second attempt at listing this item, the first failed miserably due to the size of the photos.

After many years with PC's I am finding it frustrating, but as our PC has just been wiped out by a virus we have succumbed to the advice of all our friends who insist that Mac's are the answer to all our prayers. ( They obviously have not seen some of the things I have prayed for !! ).

It's the size of the photos that I am most concerned about.

So here goes.

Small sacrificial knife or sickle.
Horn hilt, wooden scabbard.
I love the mad, staring face.

I am guessing Bali only because they appear to use such items but I am open to any other suggestions.

Hey Roy , A twin (http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=6472) from the same factory. Any markings on your blade? Sadly mine is missing a scabbard.

I could be wrong but I think the character on hilt might be Astrajingga (lit. red arrow/weapon?), also known as Sastrajingga (lit. red teaching/knowledge?), popular as Cepot in Sunda region. He is one of Punakawan/Panakawan. :shrug:

Don't know about the knife, but congrats on the Mac (have had one for 2 years and will never go back. :D

Thanks for the replies,

Kino, it is definitely a twin except that are no markings on my blade.

tunggulamatung, thanks, I will check this out.

Cheers
