Default Parang Nabur lock down purchase

Another piece bought online and via this forum in fact. I put a "want to buy" on the swap forum and a member came forward with this example, and very happy with it I am indeed. (I am not sure if naming sellers is OK here, but happy to advertise him if he so wishes)

David, that is indeed a lovely Parang Nabur and i am glad you are so pleased about it.
Regarding your comment above though, given that commercial posts of all kinds are banned on our forums it really isn't up to the seller if it is alright for you to advertise them. It is absolutely against the rules of our forums to allow such advertisements here. Enjoy you parang though.

Well, an attribution to the photographer seems due and generally academically sound practise - let's see if David agrees...

Congrats, David!

Thats an old Beladah Belabang or Parang Lais with good laminated blade, indeed.

That's a question I was going to ask, do these usually have a laminated blade?
