Congrats, Anthony!

This keris was also on my list...

I handled it a long time ago; from my memory, it seems to be a legit keris pedang (AKA keris ligan) with an unusual wavy tip (i.e. luk).

Age I'd hesitate trying to narrow down.

Regards,
Kai

Wink

I'm sure Anthony can add some more pics from the auction, Rick!

This keris was exhibited & published a while ago: Cp. the link given by me in post #31 of this thread:
http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=21646
Piece #17 on page 91 of the catalog is missing from the file online, unfortunately.

The catalog is also still available as book in both languages, I believe.

Regards,
Kai

Hi Kai, omg. So you are one of the bidders and my heart almost stop when I saw the bidding price keeps going up non-stop but eventually I told myself this is the keris I must have no matter what.

Finally a dream comes true. I have been thinking of this keris non-stop ever since I saw it in the book years ago. These are the replicas but cannot compare with this original as there is no 'soul' in these replicas.
