When is a Parang Latok not a Parang Latok?......
....well, technically, according to Zonneveld(Traditional Weapons of the Indonesian Archipelago), when it's a SADAP.
The sadap is identical to a parang lotok except that its elbow is octagonal, or eight-sided. The example below has become one of my favorite pieces. It is of superb quality throughtout, most especially the heavy blade. Last edited by CharlesS; 27th December 2005 at 09:02 PM. Reason: spelling error |
