These Jawa demam hilts are Sumatrese but they do not look to be from Gayo origin to me, the one shown in post# 3 seems to be made from elephant ivory as identified from the longitudinal cracks especially.
The blades are very old and worn and they look javanese indeed.
So there is nothing from Palembang in these 2 mixed krisses?
