once in a great while, one will see barungs with chased and repoussed ferrules. i thought i'd share this. one of the crispier and clearer artwork i've seen done on a punto in a while. junggayan pommel, with excellent laminated blade..

Wow, stunning work! On purely an aesthetic level the blade has great lines to it to accompany the various components.

Wow. That would be a centerpiece of any collection of Philippine arms.
