Hey Roy , A twin from the same factory. Any markings on your blade? Sadly mine is missing a scabbard.

I could be wrong but I think the character on hilt might be Astrajingga (lit. red arrow/weapon?), also known as Sastrajingga (lit. red teaching/knowledge?), popular as Cepot in Sunda region. He is one of Punakawan/Panakawan.
