Hello Ian,

Quote:
I'm going through Gardner's Keris and Other Malay Weapons today and see that he has these two shown in Figure 53, p. 60, where he identifies the top one as golok jambu and the lower one as parang jengkok.
AFAIK, jambu/jambul merely refers to a protrusion/spike - it's just a description, not a proper name.

Regards,
Kai
