Tenegre? & Parang Nabur?

Is there a particular difference between Parang Nabur and Parang Pedang?
I have a modern-made pamor Parang Nabur from Valiant Trading Co. and it looks similar to that "Parang Pedang".... and I have seen the Nabur name a lot but not so much the pedang one. Also, I don't know Indonesian history particularly well, but "coastal Malays of Borneo"... that could refer to Iranun, Sabah Moros, Iban, Sea Dayaks, Brunei, etc. right? In all the researching I've done online, it seems they've always been vague about this type of sword's user... Sea Dayak... Iban... European influence... I've seen a picture with it next to a barong I believe, from Sulu...

Here's my pamor Parang Nabur...
