Javanese armor-piercing tombak
length: 27"
Extremely rare and unique tombak from Java, Indonesia. Unusually tough
blade can piece armor (we've tested it by punching holes in coins with no
ill effect to the blade). Tombak and other indonesian weaponry are not
usually quite this tough and well tempered. Pamour is "Gumbolo Geni Kinatah
Mas" (geni=fire, mas=gold). Short wooden shaft decorated with brass, newly
made sheath with carved motif.
head: 8"
blade width: 1 1/2"
shaft: 19"
weight: 1 lb 3 oz
