It is hard to find these type of tools in the US. Thanks to your blog I knew what maker to look for at the hardware shop. I own 3 (now 4) parangs. My first one is made by sam lee and has been an excellent tool. Two were bought for me by my brother in law near the Thai border. Both are good tools also. I cannot wait to try out my new Bidor parang in the forests of the USA! I purchased a Bidor parang today in Kajang. It is hard to find these type of tools in the US.

I believe there's at least 3 parang makers in Bidor. Knowing your background, I will take you word for it. I will try to pay Meh Heng a visit in the near future. Thank you sir.

Go to the outskirts for a better chance of getting one that you want. Hi Fuji…most hardware shops in KL don really carry parangs.

Have you seen one there in the Bidor factory? No patience to wait for a custom made. Maybe the boss knows someone (his dealer) in KL. Would like to try to get it in KL first if possible. Thanks. Hi,
