A Moro Pira Sword With a Unique Hilt
Here is yet another nice and rare Moro sword from the Baltimore show. This is a "pira" blade, but the hilt is somewhat atypical for a pira. This hilt is carved in a stylized naga or serpent head. The blade is a typical Moro pattern weld. Piras are generally associated with the Yakan Moro.
