Nice little collection there. I also like the early wavy bladed gunong with great burled hilt (needs a little etch), and I like that barong with the horn/kamagong hilt and bone/ivory inlays (I always love the contrasts).
I am so glad you got your pieces and that you are happy with the work.

BTW - nice Mandaya sword as well - I like the hilt form, which is much better carved than my own.

Hello Algelan,
Congrats for those many excellent pieces and thanks for posting many pics! Quote:
BTW, what date can be gleaned from the coins? Have you tried to etch the blade? Regards, Kai |

You have always turned up excellent restoration work before Battara and I expected nothing less when I entrusted the Mandaya dagger and the scabbard work for the barong. The wait was all worth it.
