Matching Balinese keris sheath and hilt

According to Lalu Djelenga, the cecekahan or cekah solas (11 notches) hilts were worn by soldiers and are matching with batun poh style scabbards. Your metal hilt is in gerantiman style IMO which ideally matches with kekandikan krisses but from the pics it looks a bit oversized as compared to the sampir.

I wonder if the sizing might look a little bit better without the uwer.
