hi ariel

the piece of wood you see is a piece of Javier that broke when I led the two holes, they are not pierced recently!

Hullo everybody!

The above sword looks to me like an 'el cheapo' version of 18thC/19thC Kilij made on the island of Java. Those I've seen were jewel-encrusted, gold-inlaid etc. I know of one that resides in a museum in the Netherlands ( in Delft, I think ). But then, I could be totally off the mark!

Best,
