LOL
Don't Worry Battara, I got another one for you... this one even has some battle scars on the blade.
Hey Spunger, funny you posted that butter knife. It reminded me of my butter knife I use for practice. Ian, I'll post some pics of the Mandaya bolo when I get it and also pics of another example. |

Here is another example of an older garab for comparison to the one above. The seller for the swords said these came from a lady's husban who brought them back during WWII. I would probably agree with Rick's comment as to the age.

ibeam,
i would hold off on your knife. double edge butter spreaders are hard to come by, lol. Quote:
as far as the carvings on the hilt is concerned, i don't think it's not much crispier than battara's or your garab's (btw, cool garab. no broken fin or anything  ) althought the carvings on the scabbard's toe does look pretty crispy.as for the mandaya sword, congrats  you've got yourself a rare piece there. can't wait to see some close ups (hint, hint)
