a parang by another name?

Of course, my (silly) mistake. I have the Zonneveld book. It is an excellent reference. This piece comes closest to Zonneveld's type II, but he only shows a single example. Could it be considered a Pedang lurus?

Lurus mean straight. First, your pedang isn't straight and second is this: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...t=pedang+lurus what I understand as pedang lurus.

I introduced it as a parang because that was how Artzi identified it.

Here you can see three other examples of this type from pedang but there are a lot more in old threads: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ghlight=pedang
