Royston, Great looking sword. I especially like the hilt and cast ferrule and guard. I would also be very interested in knowing whether the blade is laminated or not. My congratulations to you on a very nice score.

Jose, is it normal for this style of sword to have a blade thickness of only 1/8th inch? Seems rather thin compared to most other Philippine edged weapons that I have seen until now.
