I believe this also is a karmadikan blade (very difficult to estimate from the pics though).

Could you give us an overview on the current blacksmithing done in Sulawesi Selantan, please? I have seen quite a few blades of current era production and I would be very interested to hear some insider info about the empu/panre doing this work! If it's too tough to do in English, just write it in Bahasa Indonesia and we'll try to do a translation...

Thanks a lot for your efforts to post in English! I know it's tough, especially in the beginning!

Kai
first off all I would to say I am very sorry my English very bad, Kai mungkin Anda bisa menerjemahkan kedalam bahasa Indonesia, Keris ini Adalah Keris sepuh Bukan kemardikaan, Keris ini Adalah miliki seorang raja Dari bugis Bernama La temmupage Arung Labuaja, mungkin Dari beberapa postingan saya sebelumnya saya mencoba untuk memperkenalkan Karya empu Dari tanah sulawesi, empu di Sulawesi terbilang sedikit tetapi memiliki kemampuan dalam membuat pusaka sangat di akui Oleh empu empu di Jawa, ada beberapa teknik terapan PADA Keris maupun PADA badik atau Pedang yang tidak mampu di ikuti Oleh empu di luar Sulawesi,
