Yeah, gotta say i loved the chicken bit.
I am not sure yet whether it is unfortunate or not, but with these photos i really can't see the hilt close enough to make any real comment. I do feel fairly confident saying that i don't think it a a new variation to be taken seriously.
Wow, and to think it coulda been mine for only $600!

The cow bone and chicken bit, in short, "cow and chicken" reminds of of a cartoon show on Cartoon Network. http://www.cartoonnetworkla.com/engl...ken/index.html

Story-line is good. A+ for a creative script.

Maybe the previous owner(s) wanted a "dha-like wavy keris", with a double hilt that long. It's probably a one off thingy.
