Yeeeaaah..

The hilt was especially designed for this keris too. The carving, and the "red" color. And even there is a one karat diamond above the nose ring. Really good diamond. I will close up the hilt, especially for you soon...

Hi Newsteel,

This is the close up of the hilt you request... It was made only one piece, and specially designed by Gus Im. (He likes Bon Jovi and Axle Rose). Hope you'll enjoy this "rocker's hilt"...

The outline does looks similar, but the carvings does not.

The ricikan at the back of the blade (below the 6 gold dots) looks more like a turtle beak. Just my imagination.
