The Islamic blade/blade stlye is not unheard of within Sumatran weapons so perhaps the sword in full or hilt alone was gifted or bought from a Vietnamese person/workshop to or by a Sumatran??

Can we use the term "peudeueng form" with any real meaning since the word literally just means "sword" and can be used to describe a variety of Sumatran swords. Perhaps "peudeueng peusangan" might be more accurate as it seems to describe the curved variety.
