Thank you for sharing this one Peter.
It has one of the most beautifull handle I have seen so far!

Thanks for sharing indeed.
A variation that I have not seen before with a handguard with enamel.

Ps. can you post a picture of the top of the hilt of your example ?
You mention a plate. would like to see a picture of it.

Best regards,
Willem

It is interesting how the Achenese adopted foreign forms: Piso Podang from the Portugese ( "espadao"), the handle " hulu meu apet" from Indian Gulabhati, and here the British blade.

Until I can ascertain if this sword is currently for sale or not I am closing this thread.
