Hi Detlef,
What a great find, and with the amulet ball as a bonus. super patina. I would not clean it too much. just preserve the blade. |

Thank you! I don't will remove any patina. But the blade will get cleaned but not polished, I only will remove rust and grease. Regards, Detlef |

One side of the blade is cleaned, done with a Japanese rust rubber, the metal parts got rubbed with a towel only and the wooden parts got rubbed with a towel and linseed oil, no patina got removed.

Just curious with the pedang, what is the distinct characters with pedang lombok? The gajah mungkur hilt looks like pedang lombok.
