This Moro budiak was recently auctioned over at E-bay and was suddenly pulled out, probably after the seller was offered a hefty sum by a private buyer. The seller wanted US buyers only so I couldn't bid on it. It is one of the most eye catching Moro budiak I've ever seen - twist core blade, plaited silver wire sleeve, wooden shaft exquisitely carved to imitate bamboo and a munsala cloth attached to it. Unfortunately the shaft is cut down. Hopefully the lucky buyer is a forumite and could post additional pictures.
