Horn kris hilts

[kai]

Gio, we need a close-up of a part where the grain has been cut (preferably close to a right angle) - a top view of the curved part should do.

At the moment, I'd guess it's kerbau or some other "real" horn.

Detlef, the pics are not sharp enough, I'm afraid. If you examine your hilt under magnification, it should be able to verify the material.

Regards,
Kai
