Hello All,
Up for your consideration is a few of my vintage blades. My collection is taking a different direction and its time to move these. The barong is from the the mid 1900's possibly between the 1930-1940's. They are in really nice shape for being over 70+ years old, the pictures really don't do them justice. I will accept Paypal or Postal money order. All prices include shipping in the US, if you want insurance throw in a few extra bucks. I will ship outside the US, but you are responsible for all shipping and once it leaves the US, I am not responsible.
First we have a really nice Barong, it is about 25 inches in the scabbard and about 21 inches from handle to blade tip. The scabbard is in very nice shape with nice engraved scroll work filled with some type of lime, the rattan wrap is original. The marks on the blade are not rust but seems to be the oil or whatever was on it to preserve it. The handle on this is loose and can be removed, I did not want to re-glue it. The handle has a few checks in it, the 6th pic shows a check, to me it looks like a knot check, and the next pic shows a small crack. This is a nice Barong. $200.00
Next is a very nice Gunong/Punal. It is 11 inches overall with a blade length of 6 3/4 inches. The blade is a wavy or kris type with a nice handle with a white metal spacer and guard. there is also white metal on the scabbard as well nicely decorated, it appears to be missing the middle band. Overall this is a very nice vintage blade with some character. Im asking $150.00 for this.
Any questions please ask, and thanks for looking
