Default Any forumites that can help out ?
Hello Forumites,

Anyone around that can give some info on the fittings of this sword.

Based on the blade and the crossguard, I would say Javanese pedang

But the scabbard and handle are not in Javanese styl (IMV(ery)HO )

Personally these fittings make me think of chinese swords.
But I am sure there are some forumites that can correct on on this.

Any help ?

Best regards,
Willem
