Welcome Steven!

as for where you can buy a kampilan, a forum member ... carries them on his website from time to time.
Bring your wallet though. Buying from experienced dealers is not a bad strategy (especially until getting enough knowledge) IF you can afford it. You'll hardly ever get a real bargain from someone who has to live from selling nice stuff.

I'd recommend posting "wanted ads" at the swap forum - some members occasionally part from decent pieces when upgrading their private collections and I've seen fair or even quite cheap prices more often than inflated prices. However, always keep in mind the collectors prime motto "caveat emptor" and ask one or more members via PM before finalizing any transaction.

Regards,
Kai
