Here a pretty handle of kriss.
I do not think that it is old. And you? |

Ah yes, I've heard of the Tajong school in Yala. They have a giant Tajong hilt outside the school, so visitors can't miss it. Its comforting that the tradition is being kept alive!
Here's a tajong hilt carved by the late master Nik Rashiddin from Kelantan. Picture taken from Spirit of Wood exhibition in Singapore. |
