The photo of the implement and signage from the karaton musium is in itself misleading.

It would seem that the taji have been removed, leaving only the cis , however, the sign has not been altered.

Dear Alan,
What I saw in the Karaton museum was, a solely tombak in a single cupboard, closed with fixed glass. And just in the foot of the tombak, was a single name-tag for a single object in the solely cupboard.

If according to you, this "court informant" was a little deficient in "his" knowledge, then.. It is beyond my capability and capasity to say that the info was not right...
