My little blade collection

Hello Ash, BETTER TO HAVE A SMALL COLLECTION OF GOOD QUALITY ITEMS (as yours), THAN A BIG COLLECTION OF . . . ."STUFF" (lets call it)!

I also like that small sweet mandau. The handle is slight crudely carved but the rest makes it up so nicely; neat scabbard, great condition beaded cord, differently carved sideknife ('pisau'?).
That African knife with the ivory handle is also quite stunning.

Most guys/collectors I know buy firstly a whole bunch of less quality and fake items to sell them together in a later stadium for a loss and buy just one or two quality items. Better to start like you do!!

Thanks for sharing.
