Identification of knife - Lombok/Bali

Hello
I would be grateful if you could help identify this knife and a potential age I understand it is from Bali or more likely Lombok. The hilt is horn. The blade is twistcore with a length of 37cm. Thanks

I believe that this is from Lombok, and if that is so, then it is a Berang or Golok.

Thanks Alan
I am told this appears to be one by the Sasak Bodha people of Lombok.
