Hi all,
These questions had been lingering in my mind for a long time.. Where did the 'Jawa Demam' hilt form come from? What inspired it? By what other name is it known as? local dialect, etc? How does it evolved? Any theory, thoughts, stories, folklore.. etc, are welcomed. ![]() Last edited by Alam Shah; 7th May 2009 at 12:14 AM. |

Hello Alam,
I think this will be very difficult to find out from where it come from. But maybe, and this is only a guess from me, it's origin is Cirebon. You remember this threat: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ighlight=tegal But maybe it will be nice when we can see in this threat many different Jawa Demam hilts. I also have some. sajen |
