Hi,

I like the hilt. It has added details not found on the common specimens, and it is carved well enough.

Hilt and blade are Pattani. The sheath may not be original, since it looks more Terengganu in style. The batang is unusual. I don't see this sort of wood used normally.

Thank you BluErf !
Do you think I will have to clean the blade or just keep like that with some oil ?

Hi Henri,

The blade looks like it has been extensively cleaned in the past already. I don't think it needs any further cleaning now. Probably just oil it a bit.
