Origine of Pedang?

Hello everybody.

I have read the old thread about the origin of the pedang, but I find it very difficult to understand the subtleties.

Here is one of my pedang which I can't determine the provenance.
It's very modest, the handle has been broken and roughly repaired.
The wooden sheath is covered with a thin white metal plate (low grade silver ??).
The seller announced Sumatra as its origin, but the blade (with the 2 small holes) made me think more of the Cundrik of Lombok.

(I have not yet cleaned the blade.

)

What do you think?
