hello gentlemen, I want to show you a keris which I think he comes from Sumatra

The blade does not look like any current production of which I am aware.

The wrongko appears to have some age, but seems to have been refinished.

I cannot comment on the hilt.

I do not know where a combination of this type may originate.

Semar,

by erosion I don't mean active rust.
