Where is this sheat from?

Nice work!

Still, the sheath is blade-less until now? That's a three-years' celibacy indeed

Yes, still blade-less! Can need three years more!

Finally the keris is completed. The hilt get a bath in benzine to remove the coating from shellac, the nose has had two repairs with wood filler, maybe the reason for the shellac coating. And I have used the Malay blade with the broken kembang kacang since this blade fits nearly perfect the scabbard.

Here some pictures.

Hi Detlef,

a beautiful piece, no difference to a 100% original coteng for my eyes.

The blade fits perfect into the scabbard, very nice combination!


I hope, you will find the silver coteng, that you are looking for such a long time in the near future.

I will show my coteng with an old european restauration here until the scabbard is back from the jeweler.


Best wishes,
Roland

Hi Roland,

thank you for your kind words! I am not really sure if this is a correct blade for a coteng.

Regards,
Detlef
