 Hello Godfried,
Another stunning mandau. Thanks for sharing. 
The figure on the scabbard is different from what I have seen before.
Although the variation in carvings seems endless.
I think that is an aso figure. His head on the bottom side, and the mouth towards the left side.
But it also looks a bit like a prawn motif.
Best regards,
Willem
