WHAT DOES TEKPI MEAN IN MALAY?

Tekpi

The basic form of this weapon is the three-branched with the main branch longer than the left and right branches. The main branches are straight and the branches on the left and right form the U or the buffalo horn. The Malay community named the main branch as a stemstick while the branch was left and right as a sampir. The tip of the turtle-shaped head is known as the eye fly or the flower door.
