Origin of this Tombak
 
5 Attachment(s)
Hello,

2 months ago i purchased this spear
My first thought was a Sumatran spear and Sumatra is a big island, so if it is Sumatran hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.


On the other hand.. the ferrule i find a little confusing and not typically Sumatran.
It gives me a little a feeling of a Javanese menthuk, but also not a typically Javanese.

Maybe you can share your opinion or Ideas.

Thanks in advance.

Regards.
Danny
