Hello/Salam Alan;
That is a rather curious comment from you and quite corresponded to Jagabuana's 'feelings' about this keris. You're usually rather -shall we say- verbose in your comments, so, I'm not sure if your comment here is meant to be taken tongue in cheek or other wise.
Having said that, I once brought a keris for repair to a silversmith who specializes in making ornamentations on keris ( on pendok, pendokok hilt etc) and as often happened, some other client came by and saw my keris. He is also a part time bomoh. ( healer using shamanistic incantations or quranic verses) and he immediately said that my keris has "isi" (but not the others in the workshop). The silversmith that has handled hundreds of keris before immediately became afraid and refused to put my keris in his house and always put in his workshop until he completed the repair. But it has not given me any ''strange/uneasy" feelings although it is with me for quite a while now...
