Hello Henk,

Quote:
The ukiran is more Jawa Deman. A good Bugis ukiran is more the pistol hilted grip.
The anak ayam teleng is a JD variant from the Malay East coast. I'm attaching an antique example from my collection (sorry, pre-restoration pic with hilt still turned in non-typical direction).

Note the selut which would be typical for the Terengganu region and more suitable for this hilt type.

Regards,
Kai
