Tjikeroeh swords

[kai]

Hello Duccio,

a knife with a very corroded blade (deep rust then eliminated? Or what else?)

Yes, I believe so - these swords are usually made from modern steel.

The corrosion seems consistent with the blade being wrapped for storage and then sitting with quite a bit of moisture for extended periods.

I also believe Gustav pointed to the likely owner. Let me know if you decide to part with this piece, please!

Regards,
Kai
