Maybe Alan has an idea!?
The second hilt is a monster!   I've commented on the complete keris before. I hope Alan can tell us something about this sort of keris, like I said in the other thread, I've seen similar keris before, I never had such a keris so I never had an interest to know more about these types.

Thank you, Detlef
Your hilts are very beautiful. Whether the inlays on your hilts are natural gemstones or glass?
I have two wooden hilts in my collection, they are much more abstract.
