Hello,
I finally received it,

Here some pictures, an heavy model, 800 gramms
/ 1,75 pounds just for the small sword/machete .

For the dates , I read that these ''VOC dutch models'' were made until 1920 but sure, it looks more something WW2
( reminds me Aldo Raine's bowie knife in the movie Unglourious bastards... )

The steel is good
