It is a pity the selut is too big

. The hilt is wonderful

You can find an image of a kris from Minangkabau with the same hilt and wrangka in Jensen's Krisdisk. (cap. 9.2 page 20 fig. 161 a).

well, the problem is I have never really seen what sort of keris sheath and blade goes with the hilt you have posted.

so I'm not sure about it. Also, based on my experience, the regular Riau jawa demam should be ok, but you probably have to find one of sufficient girth. A taller pendoko could be useful in fitting the hilt onto the long pesi.

I would say that if you were to use this hilt you would want to find a different pendoko anyway because this one doesn't seem to fit the hilt properly.

Hello David,

what do you think about this pendokok? It's very similar but a little bit more small in diameter.

It's this type.

The restoration of the sheat is finished. The last picture shows the keris with hilt. Until I don't have found a hilt like Kai Wee have shown this one will be the placeholder.

Hello Kai Wee,

you can show me which type of hilt you exactly mean? Thank's in advance,

Hello Gio,

thank's for the compliment about the hilt. I found a other pendokok for this hilt, picture will follow. The sheat in Jensen's Krisdisk is different, it a pure Minangkabau sheat.
