Thanks David unfurtunately for my pockets I like too many kind of weapons (kris, sikin, arm daggers, golok)......

I think that the scabbard is original but it's possible that the mouth piece is a replecement. What I really like is the handle and the decorations on it

Hi Flavio

Nice to here from you. I thought you would have found a nice spear head or some arrow heads on your dig oh well maybe next time. Very nice Sikin congrats!

Thank you Bill, Lou and Jose!!

Lou, we have found many arrow heads in obsidian, I hoped to find also some bronze objects since the village is dated to the early bronze age, but we wasn't so lucky

Welcome back Flavio!

Nice sword with a beautiful hilt.
I also suspect that the scabbard is later than the blade and hilt.

Thank you Michael. Yes maybe as you and David say the scabbard is not original to the sword. Soon, pics of another sikin
