Most of the time the blades are poor quality,
sometimes you get lucky.

Here's mine which i aquired lately. It had a very rusty blade. after cleaning the pamor did come out nicely.

It had been hanging many years on a wall of an Old KNIL soldier, who brought it in the fifties to the Netherlands.

compared to many others , this is a big one 43 cm blade, total 60 cm.
