Yes, that's the quote I posted before and the source of Stone??? 
 
It's obviously an alternative spelling of the Iban parang aka Niabor, Njabor or Nyabor. 
The genuine and old war sword of the Sea-Dayak (see Shelford etc.). 
Maybe you could share a picture of it for this thread as a reference because, as you know, I don't have one myself yet?
