Hi mykeris,

Is this the keris that u had been telling me before? Im suprised it is a naga. If this is the piece, i can sure say that it is authentic. It seems unusual to have both naga and singa barong on one keris. However, i dont think we can accept this as a malela. Its the wide groove alongside the naga that makes it looks like fullers. Thanks for sharing, however, now that u had shown the keris pictures, in a few years, naga-singa kerises will starting to reach the shores of malaysia from madura. Perhaps someone can help to identify wheather the naga is javaneese or malay. On the other hand, i havent seen any singa on a malay blade.
