Unusual Sajen Keris
Hello,
I bought this Keris Sajen from a collection of Indonesian artifacts collected locally between 1960 and 1975.
(There was also a mini tombak and two other mini Keris in sandang walikat dress with wavy blade that seemed to me contemporary of the purchase. )
This kriss intrigues me because the blade is very thick 8mm (and 12mm for the head). I'm not sure if it was directly forged like that or if it was cut and reforged in an old tombak blade because the lines of the pamor are cut at the base of the edges, just before the character.
What do you think?
Overall length without scabbard : 21cm
