Hello Naga Sasra,
According to the EK (but not the book Dhapur), the kris shown on your first and last pictures has a dapur Regol (with twin gandik). I attach the pictures of a similar kris from my collection, and of my only kris with dapur Sepang.
David, sorry I have no information about the origin of this dapur, I consider it as just a variant symmetrical dapur like dapur Regol or Karna Tinanding. There is another variation of dapur Sepang with a gandik as indicated in the EK and shown in the book Dhapur.
Regards
