The same picture is on Van Zonnevald's book.

Thanks, Flavio! I believed I had seen that pic several times online but didn't thought of AVZ...

The way the knife is carried seems like the one of a wedung with a hook for the belt.

Also the hilt configuration doesn't show any similarity to the usual Jambea hilts. Especially the hilt being confluent with the metok (enlarged base of the blade) seems to me to suggest a Wedung. Any other blades with a metok(-like) hilt design being acceptable for the dress code of a Jawa court?
