Hi all there I must thank John because he did tell the name to this Parang some time ago
Yes a very nice example s from Michael and Kino The Handle off Kino s looks like wood with Horn The handle looks like buffalo Horn the one I have. I show some more pics also a spear that came from North Borneo |

Great Parangs Ben and Kino!
Dajak, could you please also post the N Borneo spear as promised? The last Parang of yours is really interesting. The hilt looks like a Sangkit but the blade doesn't? I am also puzzled by the guard? Could it be a unique, one of a kind, Murut Pedang/Parang? Michael |

It is an old sankit probably the first type you see the pakayun blade type 2 and brass guard but sankit hilt
the spear you see between the scabbard and the Sankit |

What lovely silver repousse on these pieces. I assume that they belonged to the chieftain/datu class, yes?

I managed to get this Sangkit last week (Ben knows from who).
So here is another reference of this rare parang. Michael |
