Another Moro Datu Barong for our Archives
One of my favorite pieces. The hilted is segmented ivory with horn spacers. The ferrule is gold plated in a rudimentary geometric and floral motif. The blade is a forged in a somewhat unique, almost linear, pattern weld.
The scabbard here is new.
Dimensions: 26in. long; 17.5in. blade; blade is 2.75in. wide at its widest.
