A gunong for your comments (big pics)

When I saw this gunong on Ebay, it looked somehow more "real" than two others I have bought. Real meaning made for serious use, of solid materials. The scabbard was completely black, and is wood covered with what I suppose is nickel silver. It is missing one ring. The blade turned out to be pattern welded. It had file marks and some edge damage in 2 places. The guard and ferrule are very thick and nicely engraved. None of the metal seems to be plated. Overall length is 14" with a 9 3/8" blade. The blade thickness is .250" with a diamond cross section. The weight including scabbard is 1 pound.

Comments and observations are welcomed!
