The hilt is not typical of Bali, but I have seen a couple of Bali knives years ago with a similar hilt. Usually Bali hilts will have a central ridge along the underside.

The leatherwork is very typical of Bali.
Thanks! Yes, the blade has a chisel grind. The hilt definitely has a central ridge or keel. I think we’ve pinned this one down!
