What a beauty, I never seen a Majaphit spear tip like it since. I still cry over this one
Hi Pusaka,
I see any twin Puthut (Jawa = Puthut Kembar) at up side of this spear and the Twin Dragon (Jawa = Naga Kembar) at the bottom side (Sorsoran). I never seen or heard before that any OLD Keris or OLD Spear which has both of Naga Kembar and Puthut Kembar on one piece. Both of it has a different histories.
So, the spear like this can be called as KALAWIJAN.
For comparison : http://gallerykeris.fotopic.net/p24159798.html
This Trisula made about 1960's - 1970's from Aeng Tong-Tong Madura island.
I more like if this spears told as it was.

I really don't know how the Maduranese Spears which made about 1960's - 1980's can changed to be a Majapahit Spears
Did you has know
