Origin of a pendok

Hello

I bought a lot of Keris with some spare parts including this metal pendok.
It may be mamas because the metal is a bit thick.

I would like to know which region is this pendok from?

Hello,

I recently acquired these two Keris which intrigue me a lot because their grip is very close to that of the Keris hilt from South Sumatra.
