So much for this one !
A first look at the other rencong: simple but nicely done. Sheath and handle in horn.

Hmmm... quite good. I guess you're using the other piece as an example to make this one. Nicely executed. I like the hilt. But for those whom are familiar with this weapon, they could tell the differences of the blade aesthetics, especially the fret-works at the base.
