Is it possible to determin the age of this Keris

Hello Pat,

Welcome to the forum!

Is it possible to determin the age and pamor type? I assume this Keris is from the early 19 century.

Age is difficult to assess, especially from pics. The blade has lost quite a bit of substance by erosion and only limited amounts of pamor are left which may also change its appearance a bit: it is obviously of the pamor mluhmah type and if pressed really hard to name it, I might fancy to go with kulit semangka...

Gonjo might be a replacement and just about any greneng are gone. Thus, hardly any pointers left which might help to narrow things down.

Regards,
Kai
