Burma - - Asian Antiques, Under The Bo : Antique Arts Asia

This website has tons of material from all over Asia including weapons, I check it from time to time. They are based in Thailand and they do seem serious.

I am looking to buy a burmese sword, i really like them, any idea what the best link is to actually buy an authentic sword?

[Tee Sok]

Thanks a lot for that, very beautiful collection of weapons. There could be a thread for every single weapon shown there, so much to learn!
