Default A Borneo Oddity
I have just picked up this odd Borneo sword that looks to be a marriage of two cultures. The sword is 26in. overall, with a thick, heavy, blade of 20.5in., and is beautifully balanced.

The piece has clearly not been 'monkeyed with'.

What sort of scabbard would this likely have had??

Let me know what you think.
