Hello Alan,

Why should someone with a deep knowledge in Balinese Hinduism come to the idea to paint the sogokan red? I've read, that's your opinion only! ;)

Please don't let the blades in this state, they show red rust, just clean them with WD 40 or oil and 000 steel wool, otherwise you can find them after a few years beyond any restoration!

Rather nice add on to my sewar collection

I've won a rather nice sewar by a German auction house. The fittings are from gold and silver. 35 cm without scabbard.
