As with guns, what happens when the object leaves the manufacturer's hands is totally up to the person who posesses it; he can use it or abuse it .
Koftgari is an art form that should be preserved and encouraged.

One could take any of my brand new kerises and artificially age it, distress the scabbard etc. in an attempt to pass it off as antique .
Does this mean that modern keris making should be stopped ?
Heavens no.
