Bill, I see the "X" talimanic marks on the spine. I would not think these were needed for a plain agricultural tool. War and executions would better justify the need better IMHO.

Did not mean to imply that this was an agricultural tool. Just that Cato said the war and execution panabases evolved from them. But I bet this one would fell a fair sized tree, or enemy. |

Until you handle a massive brute like this it is hard to conceive the cutting power of a large panabas. Congrats Bill on finding such a monster.
You'll have to use it to trim the hedge -- afraid it doesn't have much further use here in the US. ![]() Ian |

Bill, Your Panabas' smaller brotha is living with me. How about you send the big one over for a visit.
