Hi Blu,
Thank you for showing us another nice blade, we did have a thread on the form of the blade back in 2002.

In case you or other forum members missed it, here it is:

As information on Lombok/Bali blades are quite sparse, it would be very nice if anybody out there could enlighten us further on this type of blades and its variants.

What is from Bali and what is from Lombok -- that is indeed a very very good question. If I didn't know this piece was collected from Lombok, I would have a hard time telling too.

As for the "3rd eye of Shiva", its a valid point that there are 2 of them on the blade, but then again, the "3rd eye of Shiva" features on the wrangka also comes in pairs. I don't know.

Naga Sasra -- thanks for the link, but I think its dead.
