A pair of Bali (?) keris, 1 of 2

[kai]

Hello S,

Yup, Bali/Lombok again.

Perhaps he is right, in any event I can't find much pamor if any.
I am looking forward to getting a verdict from more seasoned keris fanatics ob how to proceed.

Definitely laminated; I think I see some pamor lurking. I'd give it another extensive round of polishing (by hand!) before proceeding to warangan.

The hulu seems to be wrapped in horsehair, I can't be sure. It doesn't seem to be a vegetable fiber.

Yes, no fiber. Hair is indeed utilized for this type of braiding.

Regards,
Kai
