Thank you Alan, and "defensible" is more appropriate than "defendable", sorry for that.
To me this blade does not look to be in accordance with classical Central Java standards (odd greneng on the wadidang, very thick ada-ada, uneven luks, etc) so is it appropriate to try to assign a tangguh to it?
According to the EK, a blade with luks closer and closer towards the tip as this one is an indicator of tangguh Kahuripan (a very old so questionable one?).
I only have one blade with such feature (also with ada-ada), see pic.
