Heat up a needle and stick it somewhere in the hilt in a place where it will not show. Maybe the hole where the peksi fits.
If it is some kind of horn or stag you will get a destinct smell of burned hair.
Further I also see a blade that has been reshaped and is missing the ganja. Fitted with a new scabbard with an undefined wrangka shape.
The hilt is classic in shape but of low quality.
I think that there is not much to discuss on this piece.
