This once was an anak-alang of very high quality, peninsular, probably Pattani.

To me unusual seems the very strong well forged central rib. Unfortunately some damage to greneng, which also was well made, somewhat to classical for a peninsular blade. Sumatran influence?

Somewhat unusual also the way Tikel Alis is "suggested". Normally there is a more or less deep one (often more), or nothing at all.

Pendokok is a form associated with Pattani. Could it be silver? Would be a little bit strange to have an iron pendokok for piece of such quality.

Sampir and hilt are very well done, the sampir wood is beautiful with it's two coloured grain.
