Now and then you see some strange remakes from Indonesia.
But this is probably the most creative I have seen for a long time.
It's a Beladah Belabang ("Parang Nabur" according to Stone) from South Borneo remodelled (D-guard and top of the hilt sanded away etc.) into something supposed to look more Sumatran.
