Dear Penangsang,
"Ujung Gunung" pamor (top of the mountain), IMHO is one type of "rekan" (engineered) pamor, but "satria pinayungan" (a draped over knight?), yes, it is the type of "tiban"...

Cirebon and Tegal, is only (about) 60 kms apart. Neighboring cities in North-west coast of Central Java.

Just a guess: not an old knife, but probably a "cundrik" (short-pedang like keris).
