A.G. Zonneveld write at the in up mentioned page about the stick swords from Flores which have a different blade shape : "Almost always these blades are imported from south-east Sulawesi, mostly from the Rumbia region, where swords of this type are called toa." But this blades are laminated so far I know.
Maybe Chinese blacksmithes?
