comments on this barung lamenation?

Tom , I have no experience with shandigan barungs not having one in my collection nor even seen one in real life .
Here's what I can tell you about my 'regular' barung ; the blade is slightly wedge shaped (very slightly) in cross section . The sides or flanks if you will are flat except for the lumpiness from the smith's forging . The blade does not swell out toward the edge in cross section and the edge is a convex curve to its apex .
