Yes, Jawa.
Stylistically the metuk looks like Mataram, as for age, I'd say pre-1850. I tend to be cautious about age. Tombak very, very rarely come with anything like an original scabbard, the reason being that whereas keris were primarily talismanic in a combat situation, the tombak was the weapon of choice, thus as soon as, or before, the action started the scabbard was removed and just left where it lay. |
