I have to admit (shame to myself) that I failed to recognize this piece as metal based
the sound when you clink other metallic object to it, the weight, the feel , almost anything about it is not-metallic like
I even almost sure the blade won't stick to magnet, and it does stunned me for awhile to feel it attracted to magnet ....
got me fooled, this one
so, real keris, old and repeated washing and staining corroded the metals and left it porous and spongy ?
