Hullo,

ref.:http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showpo...29&postcount=1

Sandangan = style of wearing/dress
Pariaman = popular carving form
Tarawangan = pierced
Parahu nangkub = up-turned boat, ujung turun = downward-sloping tip

Note: If the cross-section of the blade is a straight “V”, then it is a pedang; if it is slightly “rounded” at the cutting-edge, then it is a golok.

Best,
