Xasterix, I saw how this Kris cuts, pretty sharp blade. I like the way you tested it.
Did this Kris come with the hilt or did you have it commissioned?

What happened to this Barung

This Barung has been living with me for over 15 years. Fits nicely in the scabbard.
There’s a big dent on the blades right side.

What happened?

The pole arms are indeed flamboyant. The shield is equally beautiful. Is it hewn from wood or is it leather?

That is just stunning.
Best blade I’ve seen on a Kampilan. Congrats.
Twist core Kampilan and Barung are on my get list but are evading me. Hopefully a twist core Barung gets to you soon.
