Well done, Jose! I am a big fan of your restoration work.
The second kris -- What material is the handle made of? I remember seeing this for sale but the pictures then were confusing as well. |

Thank you.
I don't think the third one had a separate ganga. |

It's a good thing to bring a work of functional art back to it's former glory. Bravo!
