I would be interested in trading this Javanese (?) sword for Moro sandata.
According to Van Zonneveld's classification, this sword is West Java in origin.
Horn hilt, pamor blade, 7 silver bands on scabbard. The back side of the top silver band on the scabbard is an engraved "No 1S54", see photo.
Blade length 18 1/4 in., hilt 6 in., thickness of blade nearest the hilt 3/8 in., widest area of the blade 1-1/16 in.
Hilt has some cracks but the blade is still tight with no movement.
PM me for additional photos or questions.
