Never heard or saw anything of that keris. Here the 2 wrangka's together. Notice the similarities in form. |

I've had contact with the new owner of the Bandjermasin keris and he emailed me some images of the kris, which I was allowed to post in the forum.

Thanks Maurice, Nice to have the full picture of the blade. I have enlarged and turned them to get a better view of the blade. |

When I see a blade like this I always wonder what it looked like new .
How does the gonjo become seperated like that, from the wilah ? Couldn't have been that way when made, right ?
