This bibliography, believed to be the first of its kind, aims to provide an annotated record of a multitude of books and articles, published from the 16th to the early 21st century. The text is accompanied by 100 illustrations reproduced from published sources. It will be of value to anyone interested in the history, collecting, or study of the almost infinite variety of forms taken by the weapons from these parts of the world, from alamang, badek, barong and so on, via keris and keris hilts, to rencong, tumbok lada, wedung, etc.
