Ausjulius:

Thanks for your thoughts on this one. Yes, there is certainly a similarity to the Malay golok perak. I had looked at pictures of various Malay golok, and thought that this particular one was quite close in appearance to my knife, but it lacked the cut out feature adjacent to the hilt, which seems quite a distinctive feature on mine.
