I am with you Rick. I abhor conflicts. I am calling from the mountains
to join this forum and my palm computer handicaps me a lot, not until I get myself to town when I can write you in length. I am of Bugis-Sulu origin, older than you people I think and my ancestors forged many swords and krises at the time of Bugis-At War-Prosper. BTW I dont think,I need to answer all your questios at this point unless you really dont have basics. Please use these to evaluate until finally you reach your own logics. The air is getting colder over here, have a nice day. Always observe through your THIRD EYE ! Regards, DENDIYAR |

Hi DIYAR. Well i don't know what i missed, but i'm probably the better off for it. Honestly, there was no hostile intent or call for conflict in my post, it was just 6am in the morning and i was trying to get off some questions quickly before i headed out to work, hoping i'd find some answers when i returned. Sorry if it caused a stir. BTW, i DO believe that i at least "have the basics", but would still appreciate it if you did address all my questions when you find the time. I think they are all valid.
I, too, would love to hear your stories. |

Thank you for all views posted. After reading all views, I have taken a decision that this is a Bugis Sundang, and will advise the owner to make a Bugis scabbard and hilt for it. Thanks again.

BTW, which part(s) of Borneo do the owner's ancestors come from and what are their ethnic roots? (That's a vast and diverse area and any details might be of academic interest as far as this sword is concerned!) Regards, Kai |
