Another thing - it seems to me, that the selut of this "original" hilt and toli-toli are pretty similar in style, but they are really different to the pendhok.
I think, the possibility this warangka comes from Sumbawa is great. They love such horn on the top and that curled grain.
A question - are the opening in this horn slice and the mouth of warangka identical in size?

Hello Gustav,
yes, identical. The horn piece go deeper inside the wooden part as it's visible from outside. Later I'll post a picture from the keris with the wooden hilt.
