#PH315: 19th century Moro fighting Barong sword with great patterned blade.

The handle has a complete simple fighting form with fine
grained wood, and a silver collar. The patina is dark and glossy from
age and use. The scabbard is old and original, but has one chip
missing on the top. The blade has a rare and unusual “swirl” pattern
in the metal as well as a hardened edge. 19th century, 23” overall
with a 15 ¼” blade………..Hold
