Nice lar gansir pamor. Imo the blade seems a Java (or Madura) blade

The pamor extends to the tip and it looks superficially applied on the iron/steel core. I am not sure that this is an old blade.

Interesting.

My opinion too. And the twisted pattern looks quite unusual to me...

hi friends,
thank you for your comment.
for Jean: you certainly could argue that this blade is not old, but of course I also know better because I got this blade from the original rural population of lombok and I am sure about the authenticity of this blade.
to Alan: Yes it is...this is lombok / bali blade.
thank you

Hello Mamat,
If you are sure about the origin and age of your blade, what do you expect from the forum members then?
Best regards
Jean
