Interesting metal used there ganjawulung.

Typical Javanese keris would show pitch black blade or uniform dark ash grey colour. Could be the different techniques or metal combination used here. Probably, the iron extraction method during the making of this keris is slightly different from the old traditional way. Or is it the pictures that turn out that way...
