It is of "European " variety: the tang starts as a rectangular slab of metal , goes through the entire length of the hilt, being transformed into a thin round one and sticks out a bit, being fastened by a nut ( lost patination and scratches on the top).
That eliminates exotic locations ( e.g. some Piso Podangs had eagle heads), but beyond that ...it's above my pay grade. But the word " colonial" is still at the back of my mind. |
