hi drdavid, love the rencong, here's my horn version:

I've had this for a little while but just got around to taking some pictures.





A mid Qing period jian in decent shape, the guard is particularly nice while the pommel is a bit rough in construction. Overall dark chocolate patina which makes photographing a bit of a bummer.

You can see the rest of the pics I have of it here:
