I recently got this rencong from Adni of Malay Art Gallery. It is a ceremonial rencong that is subtly laminated and the hilt is made of resin filled chased silver (with traces of gold). IT was once gilded. I made the end cap (which was missing) out of chased silver and a ruby. Its scabbard is wood with 2 silver bands ( I made one of them).

Enjoy
