Agreed Alan. There is no denying the level of skill applied, but it is not to my tastes either.

Great craftsmanship yet I'm a bit surprised at the lack of contrast in the pamor.
I wish there was a picture of the sarong.

They would not have used pure nickel for the pamor, probably some recycled nickel alloy material.

The sarung is behind the blade, it is a similar sort of thing to the one at the top of this page:-

pure art, nothing realistic about it --- but then that's what Mr. Neka is all about:- art.
