I'm with Kai on this. In fact I like the laminations on this even better!

Here are some pictures from the seller.
He got the lance from his neighbour 12 years ago. She was a woman of 90 years at that time, and according to her, her father brought this lance from Borneo. So this lance was most probably collected pre ww2. Late 19th / early 20th is my guess as well. The tip has some damage an will need some working. When I get to that I will also give it a light etch to show the laminations. I am very happy with this very complete lance. |

Here some more pictures including a new aquisition in the same style.
The 3rd one is not making it easier to pin point an origin on this shape. |

I found an auction in the UK in 2017 where these 3 lances were sold.
The description is only "indonesian 19th cent." |
