Default Another Most Interesting Parang Nabur/Beladah Belabang

This is one of the most unique "naburs" I have seen. Extraordinarily long and saber-like, this one is 37inches/94cms overall. The hilt is horn with brass fittings, and the hardwood scabbard is fitted in brass as well.

The most unique feature is the elongated blade which swells towards the tip where it is artistically pierced.

It feels great in hand, and handles a little different from most "naburs".
