Hello Kai, I will be posting the sixth and final piece either later today or tomorrow. As for what it is it is another Kris with a cast silver pommel and bands. Unfortunately it is the only piece that was damaged during storage and I am trying to straighten it out a little before posting pictures.

Thank you for you thoughts on these and I believe you are correct in where they might have been stored. The reason that I thought the shaft on this was carved wood is that it is very solid all the way through and I thought that rattan had either a hollow core like bamboo or a soft pithy core like a lot of other grasses. I guess that I should do a little more research before posting.

Thank you again.

Robert
