Bottom is cekah redut, top example is bebondolan, middle is loncengan.

The word "danganan" means the hilt of a keris. I think it can also mean the handle of an umbrella or handle of some other long large thing, like perhaps a walking stick.

EDIT
Sorry, I shot too quickly, I took a glance at the pics and the text, then i wrote, what I wrote was wrong, my quick glance gave me a memory of a bebondolan I missed the cuts, that top hilt will probably have a total of eleven cuts, so that makes it cekah solas. "solas" = "eleven", "cekah" = "thick slice".
