A supernice and rare mandau from West Borneo.

The antler handle with very fine details and spirit face , the grip is wrapped with silverwire

The blade is made out of an enormous file what is very unusual.

The scabbard show a very nice lizard figure and a strange catlike face what seems to have been inspired by the Melanau .

A enourmous mandau in very good condition.
