Unthuk banyu should not be as regular as this, the bends are created laying the strip of material as mlumah and bending away from and then back to the core, and it might be twisted first before the bending is done.

With lawe the strip of material is oriented miring and bent away from the centre of the blade & then back towards the center.

Thank you Alan for explaining the difference between the 2 pamors.

So is it correct to deduce that pamor Lawe Setukel (miring) is more complex than pamor Unthuk Banyu (mlumah)?

Cheers,
