Hello Gunar,

Quote:
what are the dimensions?
Blade length starts just under 50cm, peaks around 60-70cm, and tethers out with a few rare long examples.

Quote:
I am curious as I see some similarities with the Dutch klewangs ...
but then again Iam no expert in this subject
No real relationship aside from general western influence regarding hilts with guards (of very different construction).

The clipped blade in Wayne's example (a relatively rare variant) considerably predates the Dutch klewang.

Regards,
Kai

One of the best pieces in my collection. One that I regularly pick up and appreciate in hand.
