Blade Info needed

I did not give the opinion that both blades were of Madura manufacture.

I provided my opinion directly under the pictures of the waved blade and I said :- "This blade is current era Madura production, possibly from a few years ago, say ten or 15 years ago."

From the picture I am not prepared to say what the straight blade might be. It might be Madura, it might be Jawa, it might be something else.

In any case, both blades would be OK in any sort of Javanese or Madurese dress, but neither is particularly valuable, so it would not be wise to spend a lot of money on the dress.
