				Though I would rather be more happy to have more information from old articles, images, drawings etc. etc., as from people selling stuff in "antique shops"... 
Till now I don't have an old article yet which describes more about these pedangs and their origin. And we might never find one as there isn't one?

 Well, the only really old source which readily comes to mind is Schmeltz (1890; attached). And Fischer has it in the catalog for South Sumatra (1918).
