the auction for the wooden 'sword' below has just ended (ebay item 380160497379).
it's described as --
"You are bidding on a Negrito war club from the Philippines made from palmwood. It is a heavy large club and bears a museum mark as some of the other Philipinne weapons I am listing they all come from a museum via an auction house. It is carved like a to be used like a 2 edged sword and has also a carved grip as you can see. It has good patina and it is in good condition. Very nice to handle. Probably early 20th century."
i wonder if one of the forum members got this ...
