y'all are probably all correct, local mods and japanese mods are more likely than local mods or japanese mods. would be interesting to see a few together, i only have the a full - sized unmodified klewang (at the moment

).

Hullo Kronckew,

Here's a start. The top blade is a cut Hembrug 'heiho', while the bottom one is a South African, 1901 German-made Hakmes. Sorry for the poor quality. Note:- handles are different; also on the South African one, the guard is longer, the fuller shorter.

Best,
