When I asked young smith Sungkowo whether there is different between keris used meteorite pamor and nickel pamor regarding with its strength of "power". He answered "most probably, yes, there is."
Hi

Considering the meteorite and the "power" of a keris, I know that a keris must have meteorite in order to keep in it the power/spirit of the empu.

A spirit is consider a yin thing in most cases. The meteorite, is also of yin quality coming from space...So there is a need for a yin material to have a yin spirit in it.

From what I've heard in the past, there is a need for a keris to be powerful, to include meteorite inside. Otherwise, there is no spirit in it.
