Parang, Pedang or what?
Down at Birmingham (UK) Militaria Fair yesterday and came back with a new piece. Evidently from South East Asia, Indonesia way, but from exactly where, and what it should be called, I don't know, and so I am posting it here. It is one of the heaviest blades I own, and has a very obviously laminated blade... A bit too obvious, it looks like it has been dumped in acid and then burnished with wire wool, so a bit of advise there would be welcome.
