Default Blades of the Sumedang Regency 1888 - 1912

I have several weapons from these villages, in the 1888-1911 era. I'm fascinated by the blend of Dutch/European and Indonesian design elements. Here is a link to photos of several examples:

I will post pictures of the few in my collection on the original thread cited in an earlier post.

Thank you. I'm not sure why this picture is in the group. It has been a long time since I made that web page!
