Hi Michael yes the problem is that if someone make s a mistake it will show
up in the later books The weapon as he discribes is an parang niabor with the rings and handle
and you can also hold it with 2 hands
Henry ling roth is talking german handle swords this could be the nabur
the parang pedang is an borneo sword and not an pirate sword
The problem with the pirates is that they not easy to talk with and the moment you see them you sail away or you never can tell what happend
And that we don t have pics people carrying them ling roth discribe the parang pandat as an seadayak sword and this could be true because landdayak have an different type
