Barong from ebay

Hi, thought to share some pics of a layered-forged Barong blade -or how d heck does one call it?!?- as it is totally untouched for decades (no use of vinegar at all). Still sharp as . . . . . well one can easily shave with it

.

Although it looks the small handle protusion below has been broken, they are actually thread-remains as the top of the handle once also had some sort of woven covering (like the black bands).
