My latest Keris

[A. G. Maisey]

I beg to differ Jean.

We do not glue gonjos.

We refix them with a key, if a key was used in the first place, or we use a nail punch with a relatively fine tip & punch the gonjo around the pesi so that we achieve a pressure fit.

Stylistically this blade would classify as Bugis, and usually Bugis gonjos are fitted by the punch method.

In any case, a gonjo is always a pressure fit.
