Arug (bhs Bali) or Blatek (Bhs Sasak)

Long time ago I found a kind of ceremonial axe in Lombok. According to me it is called Arug in Bali or Blatek in Lombok.
I heard different stories what they were used for, but it seems they are used in ceremonies in both Bali as in Lombok.

Does anybody knows more about this kind of axes?
