A very interesting subject. All very rare and beautiful keris.

I've not shared this publicly before.

An inlaid Malaysian spear of robust fighting size and form.

Both sides are inlaid in this manner, total variations to each side.
The side pictured with the Alif" pamor, nil pamor to the reverse.

A point I particularly notice is;

This spear and other keris with Inlaid scripts I hold, they all well raised above the surfaces like the Mughal Lucknow ZarBuland method

All these keris in the discussion with repeated motifs/scripts, the inlay is all flush with the metal surfaces.
