Thank you.

I saw this discussion but I wasn't sure of the name because the blade is different from the illustration.
On the complete plate of Schmeltz we can see a blade much closer to my parang (and yours) with a simpler handle.
This is n°9, Do you have the explanation of this plate to know the name associated with blade n°9?

Here for the others the complete plate. I think that No. 9 is also a parang kerekoepang but I am not sure.

Hello sir

Yes that's is Parang lais. Parang is mean for long sword or long blade and many varian for parang. Example parang lais , parang bungkul, parang lubuk, parang nabur and many more name for Banjarese long sword.
For that curve blade absolutely thats is parang lais. With carved handle that we called 'buntut hayam' inspiration taking from tail of Roster
