Rugi from Alor for comment

Here a horn handle from one of my badiks in comparison with the horn handle from one of the shown suriks. Artificially aged??

Here the handle from my kampilan with the remains of the attached hair in comparison with one of the surik handles with the apparently same kind of hair, most proable goats hair. Odd looking? Maybe! But seems to be normal. Or is my kampilan a fake as well?

And here at last a close up of the braided sheath from one of the suriks and the cut down european blade of the same surik. From where they have taken this old european blade to built up this "faked" surik?
