This is the best contemporary tajong made in Indonesia that I have seen so far. This is almost there! The vegetal flourish is a bit excessive in places, but it's still good.

Kudos to the young...

If you don't have a keris...

Nice old coteng sheath. The 'window' in the batang is probably old damage.

The part of the batang that has been lost could easily have been 5cm or longer, to make the proportions correct.
