This kind of reminds me of the Indonesian version of the jambiya.
The "okir" at the base almost looks Moro to me. |

Hello Eric,
That is a nice one. The hilt shape and the decoration are very unique. I have not seen that before. |

Hi Willem,
thanks, me neither. The end of the hilt is also worked by the way, previous pics didn't show that. Kind regards, Eric. |

Going along with what Jose said about the carving son the blade, the carving on the end of the hilt looks more than a little Moro to me.
I believe a number of Moros have ended up in Borneo, right? Maybe a little influence? Have fun, Leif |
