Thumbs up

Hi Flavio,

Very nice impressive results.
The silver pendongkok (hilt cup) fits nicely, 'hugging' the base of the hilt.
But I guess, there is a slight gap at the base, which should be acceptable.
The blade looks nicely cleaned up...

The silver hilt cup with openworks design and 'fish eggs' decoration, brightens it, making the entire ensemble looks pretty. Love the background cloth as well...

Looking forward for the pictures with the sheath. Btw, what did you use for the sheath's end-piece?

Thank you Alam I haven't yet carved the end piece of sheath, but I was thinking to some kind of hard wood
