Floral instead of aso-motifs and a heavy, but non-concave/convex blade with a sharp back-edge at the tip.
The scabbard is made of tigerstriped wood and the ferrule is old style brass.

I would love to see other examples from the forumites of this parang.

Hi Michael,

Is that a two rings belt hang up system? like the other Banjerese swords?

Arjan.
