Hi Detlef,

I recently added a Gayo keris, wit a wooden hilt with similar carved motifs.

Regards,
Maurice

And on this hilt the same motif, but more elaborately carved.

Hi Maurice,

I should have known this! I have a wooden Gayo keris handle already long in my own collection. Thank you for the hint! Sometimes you have the obvious things in front of your eyes but don't make your conclusions.

Best regards,
Detlef
