Boar is sometimes found on Keris hilts, and this one looks like. Another one in Van Zonneveld's book on page 67.

Indeed Cirebon hilts sometime comes is 'unusual' form. I can be certain it is intended for keris looking at the rounded base even though I've seen those which more appropriate for sword ie. oval end. Thanks for sharing Marco.
