Another gold (suassa) ferrule
I thought the ferrule on this one was copper until I had it tested. It came back 10K gold with copper alloy. This is a plain-looking Moro ferrule IMO. The carved simple wooden pommel is very well done and the wood is high grade. There are multiple bands of braided silver wire at the end of the ferrule. No scabbard with this one unfortunately. The ferrule on this one is shorter than my other example suggesting a different tribal origin (?Taussag).
