hi. my less than humble knowledge about SE Asian arms lets me just define this too roughly as a keris(?) with a beautiful decoration, and thats all. what interests me more, is that it is offered in a local auction site with description as " high grade silver mounted Ottoman" !!?! Length 63 cm. I request as much information as possible about the item pls.
regards
