Sepang Luk by Sukamdi
Raden and All,
This is the "sepang luk" that was made by Sukamdi. Really, the material is a very very broken "sedayu" keris blade, reforged, and than reshaped like this. Formally a straight keris, very badly broken. Sukamdi also made the ganja, (ganjawulung type) with a ganja wilut (double curved). The ganja was made from other black iron. Such ganja called by common Javanese as "ganja susulan", or ganja which is made in the later time..
The hilt, is a gading hilt, Yogyakartanese and also the sheath. The scabbard (pendhok) is silver, and was made and crafted in Kota Gede, Yogyakarta. But the hilt was specially made by one of the best Yogyakartanese hilt carver for this time being, by Kamijo or more known as Gatot..
