About 30 or so years ago I lived in an old stone house out at the end of a gravel road, it was about 3 miles to the nearest neighbour, and between my house and the tar road there were 3 or 4 creek crossings.
Nearly every time I left home and put the umbrella in the car, it would stop along the gravel road before I got to the tar. If that umbrella went in the car you could take an even money bet it would break down before I got to the tar, and especially if there was heavy rain, which I reckoned was just the evil spirit in the umbrella being particularly nasty, knowing I'd have to get out in the rain and spray WD 40 everywhere to get going again.
Anyway, when I shifted house, the evil umbrella got lost in moving, and you know what?
Never ever had a breakdown again.
Its not only keris that can have these evil and mischievious entities in them. I know from personal experience that umbrellas, and maybe other things can too.

Fascinating! I think this can happen. Great umbrella story. A friend puts a bowl of rice as an offering to his computer, and the computer no longer makes "pig noises" meaning the hard drive can be failing.
My wife can destroy a computer as she often screams at it. I am getting her computer a bowl of rice.
I cannot wear windup watches as they quit working. Even holding a woman's hand made her watch stop.
I read a keris could stop a bulldozer. Sure, in fact it could make a bulldozer do all sorts of jobs IF the blade was held at the operator's neck.
Paramahansa Yogananda was walking in bright sunlight and one of his disciples, with great effort, did magically create a small cloud that made shade for Yogananda.
The teacher turned to the disciple and said, "You could have done much more easily if you just held your umbrella over me. Would you not be of greater benefit if you used your magic powers to help you reach greater enlightenment?"
