Duku Chandong Parang of Bidor, Malaysia -Field Test

The Duku Chandong is a traditional chopper used by the Iban people of Sarawak(Borneo).
Features:
- 5160 High Carbon Steel
- Blade Made of Hand - Quenched and Zone Hardened
- Made In Bidor,Perak,Malaysia
- Rat Tail Tang Construction (To Reduce Vibration)
- Blade Pinned metal Pin
This is a work of art. Individually made one at a time. Lot more labor put in making this rather than modern top knives. Personally I respect hard labor knives compare to machine made.

Hello Bang, Saya adalah kaum Iban dari Sarawak, Apa yang saya lihat disini ialah Parang Chandong sangat tajam. Apa yang pelih saya lihat disini Abang bejalan membawah mengegam parang tampa bersarung ianya agak membahaya, atau abang menyimpan sarung di dalam bag kemungkinan. Dalam keselamatan ikutkan pengetauan saya Parang hendaklah disimpan dalam sarung, bukanya digegam kat tangan.

Good day sir. Im a big fan of parang. Sir can you please tell me what is the good blade length of the parang for overall uses? Is it 16 inches? And last sir what is the best blade length for parang bentong. Thank you so much.

[@bujanginin9971]

When we Iban chop the wood we normally hold the wood so that it easy to chop...dont be to scare to hold..after all its only a wood not a snake..

What is the blade length? 10”? I don’t care about the looks but the performance. This performs excellently.

[@FrugalCampingMalaysia]

Bob Wampler this one 10". Longer&thick version 12" for heavy chopping. This is my main knife for camping /bushcraft project,so far it does the job well.

[@bobwampler3387]

Frugal Outdoors & Camping It’s great in my opinion. Thanks for your response!

[@arshatarifin7442]

There's a few version of them..some more then 25" in length..ace hardware (usa) sell it in malaysia if u happen to come to this shore not to mention all the parang producing workshop all over malaysia.. some shorter then 5"..but we called it a different name such as golok etc and I would like to mention that the parang was use daily as well as one of the weapon of self defense in our traditional martial art such as silat.
