Apologies if I seem to be spamming but been looking at some of my keris and have questions about them. It has been a while since I had such a level of curiosity.

I have here a Java keris with different pamor on different sides of the blade and I can't seem to have an idea of why it is so or how it was manufactured. Can the pamor of the keris be considered the Blarak Ngirid(?) as that is the pamor of the main side of the wilah where the gandik is facing left (as I was told)?

Is it a case of "sloppy" or "bungled" manufacture since the pamor on the different sides of the blade are different. Is it a typical or acceptable Javanese practice within the context of its keris culture?

On the pendok of the keris is inscribed the words "Sawijadi Siaka". Any significance?

The pictures are taken with my phone so not very clear.

Any opinions and comments welcome.
