Semarang, the parang from Halmahera

[Sajen]

Hello Michael,
when I look to your parang, special the handle it seems to be from Halmahera, it's the typical handle from there. It's shaped like a crocodile head. I get onetime a small book from Benny about ethnic works from Halmahera, there two examples from parang inside. I look for and take a picture from.
