No offence taken and not at all, most welcome.

As it is modern made, therefore not surprise to see complex pamor in a Bugis bilah compare to the past and the old craftsman always make this kind of pamor before he passed away decades ago.

For dress, it is Sulawesi which I believed and made with details.
