Tilang Kamerau

Hi
I like to open this post again. I bought a the following piece as a jimpul but I was told by a well known collector that this is an tilang kamerau. First google search gives this post. Maybe interesting. Unlikely with some damages. Bad weather in germany, to bad to make some daylight-pictures

A really good piece - congrats!

IMHO this sword can well be considered as jimpul (or as an intermediate/link): This hilt style is typical for jimpul and also the blade ticks quite a lot of boxes even if the tip isn't as steep as in most jimpul blades.

I hope more of the Borneo specialists will comment!

Regards,
Kai
