I'm afraid I can't say anything useful about this piece, other than even if the fittings are a bit newer as you suspect, I think its an exceptionally attractive pedang!

Nice sword Roy.
But not a type/model that I have seen before.
Was there a provenance with it ?

Best regards,
Willem

We don't collect the same kind of weapons, but I do like the quality of the pictures .

Thumbs up Nice Pamor

I believe the pamor of this blade is "adeg", with the virtue of protection against black magic. Below is a photo of adeg pamor. Someone in the Keris forum might have more/different information about the blade.

Gorgeous sword!
