Dear BluErf,
First of all, I would pose a question first. Is there any "trace of change" in the "tikel alis" part? Is it an iras type of blade?

Beside the good appearance of your blade, I must say that your Cirebon raksasa hilt is marvellous... The "pelokan" (Mal: 'sampir'?) is Solonese type of "gandhon". But the "gandar" part is quite strange -- solonese form, but wears Maduran pendhok. Anyway, the overall appearance is good-looking.
