Regarding the similar blade styles: here is Dan's keris (Sumatra?), Paul's Coteng (Peninsula) and a typical Palembang blade. Note the slender Luks and thick Gonjo.

This has become very interesting and informative!
So, the best guess is South Sumatra, is that correct? What is interesting is that I just put it back in the pineapple bath after a good scrubbing and I noticed when I had it out how similar the pamor is to the Palembang example. Is there a best guess as to the age of the keris? Thanks! Dan |
