Amazing pieces Charles,

they must have been made on the same location / same maker maybe

Hans, yours is very nice too by the way.

And all these 3 have blades that are much more elagant than the average parang nabur.

The okir on these seems similar to Moro okir design more than typical Indonesian okir designs. It makes sense that these are off Southeast Borneo, an area of Indonesian and Moro contacts.

Beautiful BBs Charles!

And the one with wafq seems to have a "real" buduh too, which is unusual IMO.
