Michael,

The sewars, that´s what i ment. But those tourist sewars are something completely different. But seeing your parrot hilt i remembered those hilts.

Don´t misunderstand me. I certainly like the appearance of this kris but as you mentioned by yourself it is probably around the beginning half of the 20th century. I don´t call this one tourist and flashlight can give a complete different image.
