Hi Jean,
Just got this verbal news from the museum, they retracted their earlier comments. After undergone several tests, the blade is of extra-ordinary archaic buda forms with wayang motifs. Blade thickness is considered unordinary-very thin through out perhaps one of its kind in this form. The hilt is new and mendak comes from the 1800s era. rgrds,
