Hello members,

I'm looking for a translation from a text on a rencong I found today.
It's probably Djawi. I hope someone can help with the translation.

Thanks.

With the help of a friend of a good friend i found
a answer. It appears to be a name, hope i can find
some more info.

The hilt is made of akar bahar, this combination with
the gold is not very common. I was really happy that i was able to purchase this nice rencong.

Very pretty! But a question on ergonomics: do the edges of the crowns poke into the thumb at all when handling it?
