Cool set of auctions. Thanks for posting this, Ian.

I'm interested to hear your and Rick's opinions when you get the pieces in hand. I like the hua bua tip on your dha. Looks like a solid, old sword.

I was suprised the ivory handled dha hmyaung went for so much.

Thats a marriage of a good quality Regimental style silver kothimora scabbard of the 20s or 30s it appears.

The battard post ww2 villager kukri was not what went with it originaly, apart from the style bieng wrong the blade is about 2 inches to short.
