Today I received my new sword. I am nearly sure that it is a sudanga from Makassar. Look here:

Here some first fast taken pictures, will post more at weekend.
The silver end cap of the scabbard is missing as well some bindings from the rotan bindings. The silver handle has a small swassa ring and I think that the blade has a coating with some sort of clear varnish.
I am curious what you think about the sword and if you agree that it is a sudanga from Makassar.
