Hullo everybody!

I call it a golok djanoer ('she who MUST be obeyed' uses one to clear brush/long-grass around our house). This style was popular in the 1950s.
Blade: L=41cm., OAL=56cm. T=0.8cm, W=1.6cm.
Handle: Carved buffalo-horn
Sheath: Bamboo outer strips. Tin bands and sock. Buffalo-horn belt-clasp and throat.

Best,
