I have for some time two Tombak in my collection and they are rather small.
Seethe pics I share with the tread. The one with the anthromorphic hilt looks like a sealion to me.
The other one I have no clue about it origin it might be Madura but also allmost everywhere I guess. Hope someone can shinesome light. I am also searching for a book about Indonesian Tombak.

Regards, Martin

I would call them 'lading terus'.
A hilted arrow or spear point to be used as a dagger.
