Here's an update after hours of work!
The blade is more or less clean, small dings and chips were polished out, old glue residue removed.
The scabbard appears to be made of golden teak. Once I find some I will update this post again.
Please, as usual, comments and suggestions are welcome.
The terminal of the scabbard is missing, as well as the grip covering. I taped up and out of the way some handmade string that I don't think was external wrapping, but, again, I'm no expert!
Any guidance here is most appreciated!
