Hello Steve, Most of these larger gunongs that I have seen have had wavy blades with pointy luks, scabbards covered in plated or painted metal and to me are not very appealing in their appearance. On the other hand your latest example has a very nice well formed blade, beautiful wood used for the hilt, well done intricate fittings and a very nice scabbard. My congratulations on a wonderful new addition to your ever growing collection.
Best,
Robert
