Just for fun, here is a photo of another sword that was attributed to Borneo from awhile back. What a size difference.

Incredible there is no crack in the horn part! It must have been preserved very well in the old days...
I will look later if I can find images of barungs like these with a silver ferrule like yours.
Funny contrast those two next to eachother. But I like the smaller "tubby" one more, but that is just my taste...
