Willen wrote me that that this type has been published on this forum before.this madau has a very old scabbard version from Kutei
and also an undecorated blade which are characteristics of Kutei mandau.

Was going to suggest the same as Willem and Ben...

BTW, what do you Borneo enthusiasts recommend for nurturing the dried out stag hilt? I'd be tempted to try some oil or at least microcrystalline wax rather than keeping it dried out as it is.

Regards,
Kai

I would put some wax on the hilt myself.
Probably also on the wood. just a bit.

Best regards,
Willem
