By this pictures (taken from Gustav) you can see, how a kris hilt is constructed in many cases and I think Apolakis kris hilt as well. When the brass bands get broken when you want to dismantle the hilt you need to open the binding and you have a difficult restore object. It can be done but only for experienced persons.

Just a side note, Gustav's Moro hilt looks like it comes from Tawi-Tawi. Their hilts are made in this fashion.
Also Sajen is right - I've done a couple of Tawi-Tawi hilts before and it is a lot of work and time consuming. |

The hilt I've shown again with Gustavs pictures missing it's back crest, see picture. How you would classify the complete kris? Regards, Detlef Last edited by Sajen; 17th February 2020 at 10:55 PM. |
