Short sword - Dominican Republic (No Reserve Price)

Origin: Dominican Republic Manufacturer: FROMEDOCA (Productos Metálicos Dominicanos, C. por A.) Materials: High-carbon steel, carved wood, and leather Total length: approx. 80 cm and 65 cm (including sheaths) Pair of authentic Dominican machetes, produced by the renowned manufacturer FROMEDOCA, based in La Vega, Dominican Republic. The blades are made of high-strength forged steel, manufactured according to German DIN standards, ensuring excellent cutting ability and durability. These are fully functional tools, not decorative pieces — similar to those traditionally used in tropical and jungle regions. The carved wooden handles feature distinct motifs (one with a horse’s head, the other with geometric carvings). The leather sheaths show typical craftsmanship with metal studs and tassels, reflecting the rustic Caribbean style. Condition: Very good, with light oxidation and age-related wear consistent with use. Secure shipping with careful packaging and tracking.
