Thank you all!
Is there specific names or representations of each? To me the 2nd hilt looks like a naga? What is the form/design called for the last 2 that are geometric? |

It would be helpful to see the others besides the naga form from a side angle as well.

I obtained these because I liked the variety it shows in Javanese deder. If it were your collection, would these be something to add or pass on? Also, are there anything unique about them in general? Thanks again for all your insight |

By "fantasy" I only meant "not standard" and I admit that they are not bad pieces although I would not collect them just because I am a classical collector. The smallest piece has some age indeed
