I am posting a comparative picture of the sword and a Balinese ceremonial wedung/blakas. Their blades both have a chisel grind and a clipped point. And the base of both blades seem to have the same shape except that the blakas has a long protrusion. It seems that this sword might be entirely Balinese, a Balinese pedang, and not a marriage of different parts. I haven't seen a uniquely Balinese pedang before (although Zonneveld mentions a pedang bentok and pedang chembul but shows no pictures).
