Hang,

It's hard to see on the dark pictures.
But the last picture, based on what I can see, the curved is probably either a Malay Pedang or a Batak Piso Podang.
The straight one is also known as a Chenangkas.
On the first picture I can only see a couple of Pedang, as well as other swords.
And no "Parang Nabur".
If you make the pictures lighter and larger maybe we can tell for sure based on the details.

The scabbard for the straight blade nabur is newly made to typical nabur specifications. The maker did a wonderful, flawless, job. He used other nabur scabbards as models.

Wonderfull scabbard indeed.

It is just because I know this parang that I noticed.(is it not in a certain book

)

On the first picture it looks like a Murut Pakayun (Sabah) and to the right of it European (or made in European style) swords?

The one on the right looks like a typical Tjikeroeh / Cikeru sword from Java.

Made in european style and often with name and date in the blade.
