The parang nabur seems to be the "cutlas" version, with a shorter blade for use in relatively cramped confines on board ships.
That's a beautiful example, and I particularly noted the pattern in the blade, something that I've not seen a lot of.
Surprisingly, the kampilon was also a reputed weapon of the "sea dayaks", aside from its association with the Philippines.
Likewise, parang naburs are also commonly found comming from both areas to the best of my understanding.
Nice find!

Thanks Mike,

Here is the other one. Hope that you like it as well. Hadn't thought about posting it, there seemed little interest in the other one.
