Below, for comparison -- I am posting for you, some Cirebonese warangkas originated from Kasepuhan, Cirebon. Two in the middle, with 'wadasan' carving, and one plain without pendok (left) and one 'iras' type warangka (one piece of trembalo wood)...

Many old Cirebonese warangkas, found without metal pendok. But some have specific Cirebonese pendok...

Dear Ganja and Henk,
I am confident by your help. Because I have never before seen a warangka like this from Madura and the affinity from my one to Cirebon ladrang form I've thought it's a Cirebon one.
But what is with the handle and blade? Both adequate to the sheat?
