Thanks Detlef and Alan for straighten this thing out.

As I've seen most kinatah on Java blades, it is hard to distinguish Sumatran kinatah works.

If it is all a matter of the quality of the work itself, then the art of kinatah would be more or less the same, either with Sumatran kerises or those of its Java counterpart.

Then the only difference are perhaps motives and also, of course, the quality.

Is gold overlaying is another tachnique that been applied as a filler for kinatah?
