Dapur of this Javanese keris?

Yes, the way the luks were executed was what caught my attention. It was inspired, in my opinion. The blade is very thick, but not heavy. It's ada-ada can be compared to a Bugis keris', but it is no where as broad. And the next thing that caught my attention was how compact the forging was. Finally, the light wafting scent of incense made itself felt, and that was the last straw that made me buy it.

I hear that the owner never oiled it since he got the keris, and I'm equally amazed to find that the keris had no rust on it...
