Congrats Carlos!
What a nice Kampilan. A real beauty with those carved decorations everywhere.
This must be a very old one imo...

Regards,
Maurice

Congratulations Carlos, What an absolutely superb piece!!! I've always wanted a Kampilan and now after looking at yours I REALLY want one. Could you please post the dimensions as they are always helpful for reference at later dates. Again my Congratulations on you scoring this great piece.

I´m very happy to read your answers. The measures are total length 38 in and the hilt is near 10 in.
Best regards
