Thank you gentlemen for all of your replies. This kris is so different from everything I've seen so far. I really wasn't sure what I had.
I'll probably wrap the hilt in some coconut fiber twine that was given to me by a kind forum member. Then I'll coat it with some black resin.
Here's the ebay auction that it came from.
