The position and numbher of the hawkbells is also intriguing.

Hi Celtan,

nothing to thank. Maybe your Sangi is from the T'boli or B'laan since this ethnic groups have swords as well with with brass hilts. Search a little bit and you will see what I mean. And here a link where is shown a very similar Sangi like yours: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ighlight=Tboli
Again, very nice grab you have done with this knife!

Regards,

Detlef
