This is one of the beltbuckles on a mandau from South Borneo in my private collection. Simple, but very interesting.......

Thank you for posting Maurice, it's a bone piece, very interesting indeed!

Here are two of my ones. Both are the close knobs for the carrying strip. Someone know the nut?

Hi Detlef,

Don't know which nut it is, but have seen it before used as belt buckle.

Kind regards,
