Another Moro Bangkung Variation
Here is a nice smaller bangkung that I picked up recently. I believe it is pre-WW2, but from the looks of it and the temper lines, I think it was never meant as a weapon, but as a utility chopper. I especially like the chiseling at the end of the blade.
Scabbard rattan and hilt cording are restored.
Comments welcome.
Dimensions:
Overall length: 23in.
Blade length: 16.25in.
Widest point of the blade: 2.5in.
