Sekin, Padang highlands
Here another sekin, 40.5 cm in length.
This sekin is now in the collection of a good friend. Regards, Maurice Last edited by Maurice; 8th January 2017 at 09:08 PM. |

TLC...on the silver one I would suggest at least an oiling of the blade to remove as much light rust as possible, and some ammonia and a soft brush to remove the unsightly old polish residue on the scabbard.

no, I think it's a little bit unusual sewar. Unusual because the file work at the base of the blade. Handle and scabbard are typical for a sewar. |
