A Sumatran... something?

Firstly, thank you all for your responses.

You're welcome, Leif!

Thanks for the stats - sounds like a fair light blade, indeed.

Regards,

Absolutely, I suspect this must have been like a long straight (well, curved, really) razor, once upon a time.

Given the hilt, any thoughts on how this may have been wielded? I know that my big, ham-like, American hands are too big for the to fit between the blade and the root. But I know this is not the case for many Indonesians.

Thanks,
Leif
