" Death Shroud" Pamor ??

[BluErf]

Well, actually, yes. Making a keris or a tombak from pure pamor metal is a manufacturing shortcut (yes, I won't even call these keris-making, but keris manufacturing ) that we see often these days. Those blades made from damascus billets with pamor miring are extremely prone to breakage. Anyway, such blades would serve a mostly 'decorative' and 'aesthetic' function.
