Default number of Luk
Hello,

I have read that the traditional Javanese and Balinese keris should have no more than 13 luk. Yet, in the collections I have seen both in Java and Bali, there were fairly many examples with more than 13 luk.
Is the 13 luk limit really traditional or not?

Regards,

Marius
