Now is about 100 keris blades, pedang and tombak. But in my "craziest" day in the past, more than 600 pieces (in 1986).

A medium blade, about 20 cm long. According to Ki Sukamdi's habitude, the formulation of ganja measurement is: longitude of overall blade without ganja : 9 x 2. ( X : 9 x 2 ). That's the width of ganja according to him. (But not this chengkrong, the width of the ganja is shorter)..

This pics below, is "not" a pedang or Javanese sword. But actually "a chengkrong without ganja", but dressed in a pedang shape. You may look at the sor-soran or lower part of this pedang-chengkrong.. The only straight chengkrong keris I have in my collection.
