Hi DrD:
I think this one may be Thai rather than Burmese, just on the shape of the blade tip which is a recognized Thai style. The hilt and scabbard seem to have been covered with black pitch or a similar material which has worn off partly with time and use, suggesting that this one may have some age -- 19th C seems about right. Ian. |
