Cirebon and Tegal, is only (about) 60 kms apart. Neighboring cities in North-west coast of Central Java.

Just a guess: not an old knife, but probably a "cundrik" (short-pedang like keris).

The pamor of my short one, I think it is "toya mambeg" or "banyu mambeg" (the same meaning) or "clogged water", "stagnant water" in English... I don't know exactly the philosophy of this pamor's name.
