Hello Dave!

Quote:
The blade has a unique upswept tip profile that does not match other Dua Lalan I've seen.
The whole sword is upside down - still the blade is not traditional.

Sorry, I'm afraid the blade as well as the fittings are rather poor local repros (possibly from inside the culture and maybe intended for display/dancing); I'm fairly sure it's post-WW2, likely much younger...

Regards,
Kai
