Taube, I have seen many more older Balinese keris, especially relatively simple old keris, without uwer than I have seen with uwer, as for "gems" are these really requisite in a very simple Sudra keris such as this one?
I rather think not.
I would be inclined to leave this keris exactly as it is.
Yeah, I know I'm swimming against the tide, but sometimes bling is just simply out of place.
