Sumatran Pedang/Klewang

Big expenses coming up, and I really need the cash, so I must let this one go.

Lovely old pedang or klewang from Sumatra. The style is similar to the pedang, goloks, and klewangs of the Sassak in Lombok. It has a pamor blade, metal encased horn hilt with a stylized makara, and a wooden sheath which appears to be lacquered. Supposedly made somewhere on the eastern Sumatran coast, somewhere between Medan and Palembang.

Overall length incl. sheath: 27 3/4" / 70.5 cm
Overall length, handle + blade: 26 1/2" / 67.3 cm
Blade length only: 21" / 53.3 cm

First to claim it and pay gets it. Shipping is included in the price for continental USA, add $15 USD for Hawaii, Alaska, and international.

Price is $440 USD, but I am willing to bargain and possibly consider trades.
If trading, I am interested in Chinese fighting knives, Chinese swords, and Hawaiian weapons.

Thank you for considering.
