Thank you jagabuwana.

Yes, certainly not Twalen. I would hesitate to name this character, especially since it is obviously a rather recent hilt. But he would fall into the demon category i believe, with his bulging eyes and fangs.
Yes, there are indeed high level Bali keris out there that can be quite blingy, some rightfully so if they are indeed of court origin, but many recent era keris that are dressed in that manner these days just to attract the eyes of collectors. Yours is a much more honest approach for keris in this current era category. But i would not say simple.
