Hello Tom,
It's a real beauty, the handle is nicely carved and seems not splitted, it has a very nice brass crown and the scabbard with its ivory mouth is complete and undamaged. Congrats for a beautiful sikin panjang.
They are called "sikin panjang", by using this term you will find several other examples here.
Why have you started a new thread? I would suggest conglomerateing the two threads from you, maybe a mod can arrange that?
Attached pics from my examples.
Regards,
Detlef
