Any info on this kind of Sumatran knife?

Hello Detlef,

The blade look more like a sewar/siwar blade and not like the one from Rick's knife!?

In the antique example shown, only the scabbard suggests a close relationship.

The other one I was talking about (not shown though) really is a twin of Rick's knife and also of later origin (post-WW2).

The blade from my example is much more similar to Rick's example as your one IMVHO. Only the curve of the tip is slightly different.

The fullers in your blade are also quite different. I may or may not be closely related - with the current limited data I won't be able to present a defendable argument.

Regards,
Kai

Hello Kai,

yes, the fullers are a little bit different and I agree that we need more data, hopefully others will show their examples (when they have) at this place also.

Best regards,
Detlef
