			Hello Ira, That's a really nice 19th century kampilan! (Let me know whenever you decide to part with it, please.  ) Are you sure the blade is "only" 1/4 inch thick? (Looks like it might be thicker...) The blade most likely would benefit from a gentle polish and etch. Certainly laminated with hardened edge; many exhibit nice laminations/patterns, too. Regards, Kai |
