Ideas on Sundang hilt origin?

I posted some pics of this sundang on the old board. http://www.vikingsword.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/002458.html

I've always wondered about the hilt style. I've been keeping my eyes open, but have never seen another one like it. Any ideas? Does anyone have a PI blade with a similar type hilt and pommel?

Oh, and sorry about the bright red wrap, I was trying to duplicate what was there originally, (of which just a little was left) but I couldn't find a darker more natural color. The good thing is that it can come off easily.

Thanks for any input.
