BEDOK
Sorry Rumpel,
It's not a bendo but a bedok!  And when you state that it coming from Java as island you are correct but it's a Sunda blade and not common by Javanese people. For all other informations see please here: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=21948 It's an utility knife.Regards, Detlef |

Detlef, I took the info from Albert Zonnevelds book. However, having checked several more authoritative sources of information, I must say that you are right. This knife is bedok.
