Hi Detlef,

Sorry no, I can see no equality . My scabbard and hilt are made from deer antler, the rencong is bone or whale-bone. The decorations are executed in a pretty different style.


Best wishes,
Roland

The rentcong isn't from whale bone, could be bone or antler also. Difficult to distinguish from pictures only.
