Don't quite understand what you mean by a Nabur mixed with a kastane. These are two very different swords from two very different places. Are you talking about a Nabur with some similarities to a Kastane?

Have you done a search using "Nabur" and "Kastane?"

Hi Carlos,

I think I remember the thread and had a look.
But it was all discussing pictures from now dead eBay links.
The hilt is a rare variation and genuine.
Looks nice.

It's probably from SE Borneo and is of the style of swords carried by the local Malay people (not the Dayak tribes!).
