The end of most off the naburs are looking like Jimpuls some have krowits as can be seen on the straight ones so the influence from Dayaks on these swords can be notice ,
These weapons where used by sea dajaks pirates and malay pirates

Yes, the scrollwork on some is clearly reminiscent of mandau and kampilan. For comparison, this is hua lu guy ...

... and this is hua bua.

I think I see a very similar example to mine (fourth from right) . Do any of your examples have a red line painted on the hilt just above the ferrule ?
