For the hilt, no that's imho not a good match. A simple solo hilt, if possible of the same kind of wood would look much better.

Hello Henk,
I am also not very pleased by the repair, but better not possible because a small piece along the breaking egde was missing. The back is many more better.

For the hilt: You think that the wrangka is Middle Java type and not East Java type?
