Bird dha

maybe once more I am seeing things that are not there but does anyone else see a resemblance between the hilt of the bird dha and this indonesian sword hilt. I am not saying they are the same only that they have similarities

I see it, as well, JT.

Mark, in addition to some Burmese weapons with the feature, I've also had some late 20th century Thai daab with similar pierced metal bands around the scabbard.
