Hello Kai,

thank you very much for your elaborate comment. It seems that you have similar thoughts like Alan and myself.
And yes, I think also that golok Nias seems a good description of this heavy knife. But like said before, to my eyes look this golok very old, brass need a long time to receive such a patination. Will post pictures from this piece when I am satiesfied with the look from the blade.

Regards,
Detlef
