Haha, you guys look too much into the patterns... There is a human face of figure in every mlumah pamor, if you look hard enough, I guess.

The construction of this piece is such that the tip is relatively weak compared to typical Bugis kerises. But the edges are also relatively sharper. Makes one wonder how the owner would wield this keris. In a slashing mode??
