Hullo everybody!
Some more examples ..... ![]() The talwar-style swords became popular with the locals after 1850, when troops of the Indian Army were brought in to northern Kalamantan. Their popularity spread all over the island. The imported blades were affordable, easier to get/replace as well as being lighter than the locally produced ones. The brass handles were more robust and also easy to obtain/replace. They were readily available from almost any Chinese stall/shop. 13A.

Thank you Amuk. Very useful reference. Are the primary names you use Dutch or local terms?
