Hello Ian,

Quote:
The klewang is a heavy-bladed piece, with thickness of the spine just in front of the hilt of a little more than 5/8 inch. The blade cross section is a wedge shape with a smooth transition from the heavy spine to the cutting edge and from the hilt to the tip.
That sounds more like it, indeed. Could you please post close-ups of the base near the hilt?

Regards,
Kai

Hi Kai:

Unfortunately my swords are packed for an international move. Movers come next week and those two are buried deep in one of the boxes.
