hmmm....i am not sure what you are sorry about exactly. I was fairly sure when i bought this this hilt that it wasn't any more than 20 years old if that. As for the origins of it's soul, well, i bought it because it appealed to me and was very reasonably priced, not for it's origin. As i observed from looking at the keris posted in this thread, it would appear that it's origins may very well be with this particular Maduran village of Aeng Tong Tong. So i don't have any regrets nor did i have great expectations.
