Do you mean a difference in shape or difference from origin?
The 2 are very different. The Parang Nabur is from South east Asia (Banjarmasin, Negara area). The Parang Pedang is from coastal North Borneo (Sabah). Both used by non-dayaks (however the parang pedang I am not sure, because the ferrule used is also find on the sangkit, a murut tribe weapon).

The Parang Nabur is not so rare as the parang pedang. Therefore you see much more about the Nabur name. By the way the inland name of the parang nabur was Beladah Belabang.

It doesn't refer to Iranun or moros. They are from the South philipines, but also have settlements in Sabah, and have taken their kampilans,morokrisses and barong with them.

It also doesn't refer to the Iban (other name, same tribe: Sea dayaks), and lived in another area of Borneo, Sarawak. They were no malays, but dayaks.
