Hello Mike,
Post-WW2, possibly vintage but certainly not antique. IMHO not a tourist piece but rather something to get the work done... Hilt also seems to be an utilitarian version from less pricey wood; an aluminium ferrule would be certainly more en suite than silver. Please give the blade an etch when you receive it: always interesting to learn how it got crafted. Considering the low price, I guess this is a good example for any Moro collection until one chances upon an affordable, traditional, antique bankung. Regards, Kai |
