Detlef, the sheath is not appropriate for the hilt
![]() I know you didn't buy the blade, but it is nice in its simplicity. If possible please post larger photo(s) with good focus on the hilt once you have it. Congratulations with this nice addition! |

Thank you Gene and Chandra!
I think the complete ensemble is a put-together, wrongko is Yogya style, handle and selut Cirebon and blade maybe Madura. The real value is the handle in my opinion. Will post pictures when I have received the keris.Regards, Detlef |

Hello Detlef, I meant to say that both hilts are excellent in their own ways
. Thanks for sharing.
