I've shown an example of the sheath form before, but Kai Wee do have a piece. [
Kai Wee's example ] Discussion of the pieces [

Hmmm... this one is a little tricky. The blade looks Sumatran. The selut, Palembang styled. The hilt form, ... unusual
. The sheath's cross-piece looks a little odd, possibly a replacement. The shaft looks nice, truer to the shape of a Sumatran piece. Sorry, just my frank opinion. The blade is nice though.
