Default Ki Buyut Sidum....

Another precious heirloom of West Javan keris, also kept in Pancaniti Museum, Indramayu -- very small and temporary museum at the front of the office of Bupati (Regent) of Indramayu -- "Nagasasra" keris but with luk 9 (Nagasasra Majapahit and Mataram, usually luk 13). The sarangka or sheath is Cirebonese. Very special sarangka, with "padma" (lotus) ornaments at the upper part of the sheath. They call the keris as "Ki Buyut Sidum" attributed to the last nobleman, owner of this high quality keris -- although most of the kinatah or gold ornaments are worn out...
