Old Burmese Dha : Ray skin wrapped handle with brass staples. Brass metal fittings. Nicely forged blade with fullers running on full length of blade. Blade shows age and well experienced. I never cleaned it and liked the old patina on the blade. There is a decorative S type wave engraving running the along the top section of the blade by the back spine.
There is a hairline split on the middle of the blade (see pictures) and may have been a battle stress from a hit. 3/8" thick at the guard See pics. 33.5" overall length and 24.5" blade length. Come complete with wooden scabbard with braided rattan binding. Asking $275.00
