Place name update, clarification
To aid search of the forum and cross reference, I list here the various spellings of the name of the hamlet inscribed on this weapon and some other nearby hamlets:
TIJ PA TJING same as Tjipatjing same as Cipacing (modern name)
Cipacing is located in the Sumedang Regency, about 30-40km east of Bandung.
See also these other hamlets where these Dutch East Indies weapons were created c. early 1900's. There is quite a bit of good info in this forum in particular on the weapons of Tjikeroeh hamlet which likely applies to the others as well:
Tjicatjing
modern name not known
Tjikeroeh is same as Cikeruh (modern name)
