Hullo Sajen,
Thanks, I did see the hollow. I was merely making an assertion.  The length is OK for both a golok pandjang or a pedang.Is the blade laminated in stripes? Best, |

don't see/know more as you since I just win it by ebay and haven't received it yet. Do you think that it is Sunda in origin? Best regards, Detlef |

Hi Detlef,
Just stumbled upon this thread and somehow I missed it before. To give an answer to your question, it is indeed Sundanese. I think the best thing to call this is a "gobang" for now, as there is no other name for it found in old articles nor museumcollections. Maurice |

yes, it is very old but I can't get a real "feeling" to it, so it was sold. Still think that the "very fine and complete one" is from Sulawesi.  Regards, Detlef |
