I agree with Henk. Rick made the right hit on Sjor's "keris-like object". A mounted tombak, but with a little bit modification that the tombak looks like asymmetrical. (Though not every tombak is always symmetrical -- e.g. cis). The scabbard is like madurese "seken" (mounted tombak, with handy scabbard).

Agree too, based on the "rapal-like" arabic-etching on the blade. (But apologize me, I can not read those arabic writings..)
