Bad weather in germany, a keris to share. The concrete plates are square 40 cm to imagine the size. Any comments will be welcome.

A small and old bahari kris from Sumatra Riau with a replaced javanese pendok IMO.

Yep, that pendok should go --- always depending on what's underneath it.

True, the pendok might have been added to cover up damage.
