In that case, what would the top of the hilt has looked like ?

I don't think they would combine aluminium with MOP and turtle shell, would they

you never know. I saw a WWII piece on a youtube video of someone who found a kris from a relative who brought it back from the war, and it had Swassa and silver on the hilt, with some Aluminum bands on the sheath.

I feel that the aluminum was added later or the piece is was later made.
