This is a collector-grade Indonesian Golok Silver Sword featuring a finely forged Damascus steel blade engraved with Arabic inscriptions reading: “Night and Day – By Allah – Revealing No Steel – Lord of the Merciful.” The carved hardwood hilt is secured by a silver bolster and paired with an elaborately detailed silver-clad wooden scabbard showcasing intricate motifs.

Unlike the ceremonial kris, the golok was designed for real-world use—favored by Javanese and Sundanese warriors for its versatility in combat and daily utility. The presence of religious engraving and high-end materials suggests this example once belonged to a nobleman or high-ranking warrior. Its combination of beauty, spiritual significance, and craftsmanship marks it as a rare piece of historical Indonesian weaponry.

  • Damascus steel blade with visible patterning
