Help! Advice on Repairs

Vinny - Hate to tell you this, but there is a long piece missing from the handle. Rencong normally have a long extenstion from where yours has broken off. Take a look at pictures here and elsewhere. See if you can locate it.

I don't know if it's plastic, but it's best to ask around. I have a plastic ukiran with an ugly hole because someone tested it by putting a hot needle (or cigarette butt) into it. The heat treatment on a small area around the break might help you confirm it.
