Visayan Insurrection Sword

Very nice tenegre with unusual guard for a Visayan sword. Is the ferrule from silver? Could be that the scabbard has had once alternating bands from thin carved horn bands and brass bands. See for example here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...light=binangon
I like the flat deity head on this one. Congratulation for this nice and somewhat unusual addition to your collection.

Regards,
Detlef
