A very very fine example. The dress fits this keris perfect. It was made for this one. Congrats with this great addition to your collection.

THIS BURL WOOD IS MY FAVORITE ESPECIALLY ON A KERIS AS IT MIRRORS THE MAN MADE PARMOR OR MORE LIKELY IT IS THE MAN MADE PARMOR THAT IMITATES NATURE. VERY NICE KERIS
IT TAKES MAN QUITE A WHILE TO MAKE A NICE PAMOR KERIS BLADE BUT NATURE TOOK A LOT LONGER AND PUT EVEN MORE PATTERN IN GROWING THIS WOOD. |

Yes yes yes. Hard to make wood patterns, but it is another matter to match them with steel. That was my thought on this piece I made: http://www.doorcountyforgeworks.com/...eaf_Bowie.html The pamor was done to match in some form the wood that was the sheath. That burl wood is quite special...I have not seen teak burl before. Ric |
