there is no need to send the kris to Jawa (or other parts of Indonesia)
You can make a good series of measurements and send pics and there are several people able to fashion a sheath to size.
I have done this 3 times and it came back slightly smaller a fit and I was able to find someone to make the final adjustments made.
In the NL we are fortunate enough to have a few people whom are more than capable to stain krises but this is not the case elsewhere.
