I have been looking for one of these for years and this Summer I was very lucky.
At a local auction house in a small Scandinavian city, that usually doesn't have anything within my interest, I found this one.

Nice - now that is how a Balinese ceremonial piece should be.

The blade looks a little strange to me.
Are you sure this is not some odd combo of a balinese scabbard and some scandinavian knife ?

Ps. But seriously it is an amazing piece, the scabbard is very much like the one on ebay.
