Hi Vandoo the side knife is very rare with Pakayuns it is connected by an rope so it can take of if needed.

Same by the Ibans no pocket knife connected but I have an Iban parang that has an pocket knife there are always exceptions....

I think there always little variation but with the Pakayun it is the time that change things.

I have only yet one pakayun that has brass dots in it.....some are carved but that are the later examples because not the old type heavy blade (same as the Jimpul old ones have heavy blades but also as we can see many difference).

I had more than 30 pakayuns in my collection and see 20 other ones for to study.....

That was the only thing to learn something about it because not much information is written about is.
