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.
