Thanks Jean Baptiste
I agree centipedes have magical powers, they give strenght and protection.
Here some examples of shield and keris (from this forum) with centipedes on it.
IMO the wavy blade of the keris are representation of centipedes.
And the steel pattern on the blades represent the legs and the head of the centipede is a the forte of the blade.
I need keris specialists expertise...
Keris are stingy weapons, it would be the meaning.
I will be grateful if the admin can move back this thread to weapons...
