Lethal Weapon
 |
| The blowpipe arsenal. (From left) darts packed in a small basket; the blowpipe. |
The blowpipe. A traditional hunting weapon of the Orang Asli. Its 'bullets' came in the form of darts tipped with poison from the Ipoh tree.The real blowpipe can be as long as 2 meters and is highly accurate to about 10 meters. It is especially effective to hunt small preys like the squirrel, birds and even monkeys.
A 130cm replica of the blowpipe, complete with darts in a small basket of the Semai tribe can be yours for RM150.00 while stock last. Otherwise, a month's grace is necessay to make another replica.
