This hilt form is one i have yet to collect. Seems like a fairly good example of the form.
What is the mendak made of, copper, or possibly suasa?

Hello David,
Yes, it's a wengkon pamor but like you I can't name the inner pamor. I have a fondness for pelet wrongkos and I am glad that the restoration of the atasan is coming out quite good. And like said, the hilt was the main reason that I have acquired the neglected keris. The mendak seems to be from brass or copper and was once silver plated I guess and coming from my stock.
Regards,
Detlef
