Default Agree With Michael, West Javanese Golok

Yes, its all says West Javanese, a modern style one (I guess late 20 c. to early 21 c.). Blade is monosteel, no pamor (damascene design). Pommel and scabbard's cross piece made of buffalo horn, which is the preffered material of the area. Foil usually were made of loyang, I think it is composed of mostly of brass mixture, then washed with silver.
