Very nice...
I was wondering how long it would take for someone to see the value here. I love (and own many) Maylasian pieces. Do you have some good reference books on them showning their many designs? I've several old books with color plates as well as a book on Malay knife fighting. (no idea where I got that one!)

I have a number of books plus a large collection of blades. I also have over 35 years in martial training of that region. I love the pieces... and the culture.

One of book in my collection entitled Traditional Weapons of the Indonesian Archipelago by Albert G. Van Zonneveld has hundreds color photographs. Of course the book is about Indonesian blades but we are share in common cultures with Malay.
I have several example of the pics which i scanned few times ago,

So sorry for the inconvenient, i don't want to hijack this thread, but just want to give a bit of information.
