How wonderful to find a pattern welded kora! Not many out there. Congratulations!

My thing these.

From the limited photos it looks like a high quality fighting kora. Lovely watered blade. Pity you can't show images of the scabbard as they are very rare to get.

Uploading image is not hard here just resize.

The blade is amazing but you have to show us photos of the whole sword and photos of the hilt!
