I think its a pade from ceram but i,m not sure about that.
It look like there is some rattan windings missing on the handle , the rattan around the handle has a nice patin and there is also a verry light kind of red collor on the handle almost invisible.

The ''collar ring '' has a nice shape , has a little from a tsuba.

the blad is very thick it,s 1.5 cm . The lengt inc. handle is 75 cm.

Maybe that some one can tell me a little more ?

Sajen , i did see to late the tread you did start over youre nice 2 pade..

Hi Danny,

great sunday afternoon find. It's indeed what you think, a Pade from Ceram and a very nice one withal. It's very similar with the first one I have shown.
I think the collar is also from horn and the bindings as well the end cap from the handle are missing but this is not unsual. Very thick blade.
You can post some pics from the blade with more light?

Regards,

Detlef
