Robert's suggestion is a good one:

As to the kris you are working on, I have one that the strap going to the asang-asang was actually nailed to the hilt.

Yes, nails, or traditionally pins, wire, or some other binding may fasten the strips to the hilt.
I don't think that rust to the clamp strips is causing the problem but generous use of epoxy
may add to the problem.
