Dear Members,
when I see the picture from my Bugis handle in this threat:
http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=10438 I remember that I have some Bugis handles from ivory which have a "dent" at the feet of the hilt. I never give a lot alertness to this until a antique dealer from Bali, byself Bugi, ask me if I have seen this by some handles already and ask me if I have a explanation for this. I don't have!
I want to ask you, if you also have Bugis handles with this dent and know more about.
