Hi Detlef,

Agreed - but it still a lot better than some of the junk that's out there!

Has anyone besides me seen the TV show Final Offer ?

If they have; did they see the $239,000.00 Balinese keris handle portraying Lord Ganesha ?

A masterpiece .

I like this Hindu God very much, so much that I have a tattoo from him on my shoulder, pierced on Bali!

Yes, i'd say this is a nice hilt, but quality wise it should be noted that fine carving in Bali is hardly a lost art and much better carving than this is being done. There is certainly a lot of junk also being produced and this hilt is much finer than much of that. I have also always like Ganesha, opener of doors.

But if we are going to start showing tattoos (

) this one is based upon the gold horned demon hilt that i use for my profile pic (and unfortunately do not own

)
