Hello Julian,

Like other members have stated are this type of sword is very rare, I've handled in my collector life only two pieces. And when is offered one for selling is the price extremely high!

Regards,
Detlef

Thanks everybody for your help! More than that... I don't like the style of that blade, but, I saw in the book "traditi traditionnal weapon of the indonesian archipelago" than it can have an other shape...
The handle is really special and that's what got my eyes first!
Thanks again guys. Hope someone will come photo an exemple in collection!
