Sheath|Model

CG93-10-25/41 appear to be models of various styles of Philippine sheaths. Most are too flat and flimsy to be functioning sheaths, and the tops of the kris sheaths are carved in one piece with the sides, which is also odd. Several have written on them the initials W.A.L., sometimes followed by a number. CG93-10-25 is a barong style sheath. Two flat sides, one carved top and bottom with leaf designs. No binding. Old label. W.A.L. No. 2 written on it.
