Indonesian knife - What is it?

[Battara]

Greetings folks,

This just ended on eBay, but I don't know anything about it. I do not own it, but would love to have some info on it please.........

BTW - checked Zonneveld, but all he calls this is a Sumbawa knife....... :confused:

No! It's a knife from Sumbawa, Jose read correct, see here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=7295&highlight=sumbawa

This knives are very rare and I have seen only a few in my collecting area. The one Jose has shown is the more classic form with the hook at end of the scabbard, all I have seen before have had this form.
