facegrip mandaus and Tromp.

[Dajak]

Hi Arjan face grips are much longer in use by the Iban people so it could be
that the koetai people take it over from the Iban and developed their own style

Nice piece Michael!
can you show also the other side of the scabbard?
I'm intersted what kind of carvings it may have....

Thanks Arjan,

There isn't much carving on this sheath.
On the backside there is animal fur.
The only carving is at the lower end of the scabbard.
