Nothing to apologize!
BTW, I have read the original german text posted by guwaya again and again and think to be sure that Groneman write about three different hilt/ukiran forms:
1. ukiran in form of human or animal shape
2. ukiran in form of corn cobs or flowers (called gana)
3. ukiran from tree roots resemble the human shape
since he has done a enumeration following the german grammar in my humble opinion. So I am with Henk who read the netherlands text in the same manner.
