erikscollectables · 27th July 2009, 08:00 AM

Atlhough my interest in krisses is broad I never included Bali in my collection. Now I have by accident a Bali cecekahan hilt that came from a friend.To my surprise I do like it a lot.

I would like to learn more about the symbolism of this hilt. Who has more info on this? Reading throug the books I have I found very little.

Type of the hilt used by lower classes - maybe specifically by warriors - is about all. Nothing about the decorations - notches on the back etc.

And those of you who have nice variatons on this cecekahan hilt please do share here!

Regards, Erik
