pretty small at that... only 14" blade; but 3/8" thick at the hilt.

No, it's a solid piece, no shake or rattle at all. The thing that puzzles me thought is its top, it's convertible/rag top down

can you be more specific on what part of the barung is that opening? maybe a wide shot??? btw, that's a nice carabao horn/brass punto. |

i should say, the top of the scabbard has at least 6" long X 1/4" wide openning, it's not a crack, it was intended that way. |
