few orphans of my own I have picked up in the past months , but I did not want to crowd kronks thread-- basically a nice mandau and a cool old sword from bhutan:
well you can see who I picked these up from , the mandau is probably early 20th, with a nice silver collar instead of tar , not as nice as my other from artzi which is definitely late 19th and sea dayak.
and this is the bhutan short sword, something I would actually like HI to make
the rust patterns on the other side tell me it was some kind of "open scabbard" with two metal bands, or at least it had no corrosion in two bands, and the rest has a matte grey patina , while the shining side is pictured.
my camera has been broken or I would have taken fresh pictures, when it is I will ! I am bidding on a nice mandau right now as well, and i will post as soon as I know whether or not I won.
my head hunting collecting will continue, ad infinitum until the money runs out , still have not found a good club to start with, but i am always looking
