				 OLD AND NEW BARUNGS 
 
			
			Greetings everyone,
 Thanks to everyone who appreciated my previous modern pira post. Here's a lineup of a close friend of mine. Mostly modern barungs from the Sulu archipelago. In the blades-out pic, only the two long ones with dark-brown-hilts are old.
 
 In the scabbarded pic, some Palawan badungs have been thrown into the mix.
 
 Further proof that the traditional arts are alive and well.
