#ND1 – Naga Headhunter's Dha (Dao) – $495.00
A good Naga Dha (dao) with heavy, functional, good quality blade, flat at
back and convex at obverse. Lacquered grip, swollen at pommel, with ornate
brass ferrule. Native blade showing striation would probably yield an
interesting pattern if etched. Blade 20 3/4", overall 26". Without sheath,
overall GC to VG; blade mottled with small areas of active surface scale to
reverse. Showing a few small edge nicks and a few minor pits, but nothing
significant; also several chips at edge of grip. A genuine old piece.
