Hulu kerdas variant
Hi guys,
Just a quick one. Is this a typical variant of kerdas hilt? Any ideas on restoration without scrapping its original sapan (finishing) and sealing the cracks?

Hi guys,
Thank you very much for the input. I guess this is a part and parcel of being a collector anyway. :) Confusion and curiosity may lead to many strange places. If this is a newly made...

Hi,

Hi guys,
Well, i'm no good in staining, but i think to get the pamor up nicely with the correct look is just soooo damn hard. Sometimes it seems that the blade just wont cooperate. Too dark... too...

Hi Blu,

Hi Blu,

Hi Aji,
I'm not sure where the blade is made. I'm guessing Sulawesi. I was told that the blade was previously owned by one of the Selangor Royal family member. True or not? I really dont know. :)
