Indonesian Knife for Identification

Jerseyman · 16th February 2022, 08:35 PM

Another recent acquisition. These are dealer's pictures, I've not yet seen the item in person, and of course have no dimensions to share.

As with my previous post it seems that paper has been used to wedge the blade into a damaged hilt, and it will need a clean. The scabbard is missing its locket and rattan bands.

I assume this is a Tjikeroeh blade, and probably for domestic use?

I'm unsure of its exact classification and would welcome any information.

Thanks
