To me it seems like he describes the axe, not the knife?
Except my picture from the Klungkung Palace here is another reference

And below from an earlier thread from the Denpasar museum.
I tried Leiden but unfortunately they don't have any domestic name on it.

Hello Michael,
I have send him the link from this thread to read and asked him for opinion and received the first mail about the use. After this I asked him, if there are different meanings/uses by the shown knifes in this thread and received the second mail. He have a good knowledge about Bali keris and collect them and live very traditionally. I will ask him further questions about this point again.
Regards,
Detlef
