I assume that you are being factious. What happened is often the norm rather than a special event even when you are right on top of the situation. (Inonesian nationals please don't take offense with this statement. If you have had experience with this activity you should be smiling in rememberance.) Actually my experiance with local craftsmen has been very good with this case the only mishap in all the work that I had done by the group I knew yers ago in Bali.
The flavor of the dress was distinctly Balinese which is why I had the additions made and installed there. The blade itself I should have said is a sword of some type rather than a pedang which sort of leads one to a specific type of sword with both a sharp edge and a point. This thing is more of a swinging cutting device and has the rectangular tang required for this activity.
