My First post and First Keris

Welcome Jason! Glad to see you here.
I don't have much to add to what i have already told you in PMs. I like this blade quite a bit. It is nice to see well made contemporary keris and know that the art is not dead yet. As Alan has already pointed out the hilt form is a new development of an old form and frankly not one i care for very much. I guess i am just Old School

. But it is very nicely crafted non the less. I think you did well on your first keris. I hope you will stick around.
Warning: Keris are highly addictive and can be damaging to you retirement fund!
