How to make a scabbard for a Kampilan?
Hello,
I've managed to acquire three kampilan swords, all without scabbards. I was wanting to show at least one off at my next club meeting but showing it with a scabbard. I was hoping to make a scabbard out of two halves using some local wood, bound with rattan, with the bottom edge of the scabbard open. Does anyone know of a website/book/youtube clip that shows a traditional method of weaving rattan?
One of the kampilans is most probably a modern day replica and I'm wanting to insert hair plugs into the handle and was wondering if there is a post that shows an easy way of doing this?
many thanks in advance
