There seems to be a pretty amazing similarity with most of the examples of this sword that I have seen; almost like they came from the same shop or manufacturer. The example I bought from Artzi has the original pad still installed. The only differences that I have seen are in the richness of the embellishments added
Do any of our members have an idea when this sword form was introduced into the Acehnese panoply of sword forms?
