Default Search for Keris

Thanks Simatua,

I'll certainly try and visit the places you recommended. An Indonesian friend will be showing me around so getting to those places will not be a problem (though I've been warned about Jakarta's famous traffic jams).
I guess there will be a lot of new Madura made blades on sale, though someone told me some of the better made ones can turn up with very nice pamor.
I think Malaysian customs have a policy of confiscating blade weapons brought through the airport unless you have special permission from the authorities. I think this time I'll just limit myself to scouting the museums and picking up some books.

cheers
