Hello,

What is the origin of this pedang?
I think it comes from Sumatra but I do not know exactly where.

Length of the blade: 72cm

Hilt : Wood, copper rhombus, silver.
Scabbard : Wood and brass.
Blade whith pamor.

I asm not sure about the Sumatran origin, could be from Lombok or even Sunda!?

But a nice sword or pedang anyway, congrats!

Sunda maybe, but for me is not the design of pedang from Lombok.

Yes, the blade shape isn't typical for Lombok but you never know. We should start one day a thread relative to the origin of this pedangs!
