Indonesian ? spears for I.D.

Thanks to Charles & Detlef for their comments on the spears, glad you like them.

Roughly, what sort of date would you put them at ? Looking closely at the blades I would say they are all "pamor" made.

Would the spears have been used for actual fighting ... or more parade/display purposes ? Are there any period photographs ?

Regards.
