One of the finest quality barong that we have had the privilege of offering. The hand forged, traditional leaf shaped blade shows evidence of folding. The silver banded,
cockatoo hilt is of select Bantai wood and undamaged,. The scabbard is finely carved at the throat and tip, the body banded with a tightly woven multi colored wave on the front and a banded weave on the obverse. Excellent condition with only one small spot of pitting and a slight band of darkening in the area adjoining the hilt.
Overall length 23" in scabbard, 23" out of scabbard, blade 15.25".
Good age with pleasant patina.
