Default Barong with fullers

Won this Barung at auction today, quite cheaply. Same cost as postage.

Listed as:

"Vintage Borneo Dayak Mandau Sword with Wood Handle and Engraved Blade, (Total Length: Approx. 52cm, Blade / Approx. 40cm) in Wood Sheath "

The blade is decorated, grip is fairly simple. Blade decoration is on both sides. Someone suggested it may have been a dyak barung based on the decorations.

Comments welcome.
