Description: ATH#240359Dayak Mandau Sword + Scabbard Antique sword from the backwaters for Borneo (yes – I’ve been there – times were tense in the South Pacific when the Filipinos decided they had enough of Dictator Marcos. On Borneo, the central government of Indonesia was relocating people from the over-populated island of Java to Borneo – and they were considered unwelcome – so the mostly Christian Boreans slipped back into the head-hunter ways for a while – people got the message and many, many Javanese returned home, and the Borneans re-adopted their Christianity . . . short version of a very long story) 22” Long 16” Blade Reed-wrapped handle Scabbard has a wood back and is held together with 3-strand wire This was NOT made for the tourist trade and is NOT ceremonial. But I think it is Unused. I had to scrape some mud from borneo off the back of this as I took it out of the scabbard – good thing I live in Arizona so rust had no chance to ever get started – I had not realized the mud was there . . . shows you how uninvolved in my “collection” I am . . . I thin of myself more as a “gatherer” instead of as a collector because I picked up things here and there but never took the time to put it all together as a collection.
