Nice one, Detlef!
Let me know...   Yup, I agree with attributing this to Sulawesi, most likely from one of the southern peninsulas. Regards, Kai |

 And yes, it's heavily laminated. Special the both batu lapak motives at the base are interesting.Regards, Detlef |

Hello Detlef,
Quote:
http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=25047 Name will very likely depend on the ethnic group (once this can assigned to a specific group with any reasonable certainty) or village... Possibly one of the generic words for sword like kelewang or alameng won't be too far off the mark, I guess. Regards, Kai |

Yes, this makes sense since the blade shape is very similar, also when the one in the from you posted thread is much smaller. Quote:
