Mexican Blade

Dirk,

Sorry for not getting to this sooner. Attached are pictures from a Mexican machete hilt that is probably relevant to your request. Note there is a pin through the eagle's beak, and I think your tang has a hole in that position also.

The hilt on mine is made from two scales of horn (probably steer horn).

Hope this helps.

Ian.

Great, Ian, exactly what I was hoping to see.
Would you mind showing the machete in whole?

Best,
Dirk.
