Hi David, you might right. As I said, I'm not experience enought for this subject and stil want to learn about it.

Anyway, price I bought just a bit more I guess for this one. Because this keris was my ordered to a friend and He probebly look around whole LOMBOK to find this keris.
But it's oke. EXPERIENCE/EDUCATION about this subject is more important for me.

Dave, price you asked? hhhhmmmmm

Actually i wasn't really asking you exactly how much you paid for this keris, that would be rude. Instead i was suggesting that if you consider for yourself how much you paid that information might aid in determining whether this dapur is original or altered work.
As for the taxes, i can certainly relate...but alas, there is not a damn thing we can do about them...Life, Death and Taxes...i am afraid there is little else...oh, and keris of course!

Hi Dave, the Keris Karno Tinanding is already came yesterday.
I looked again and again and again.......

Dave, according of authentic kembang kacang of this keris, then this keris is included "keris bener".
Kembang kacang on back side (wadidhang -x-) is thick/normal.
So, if this keris was already added/modified, then kembang kacang on back side became thin (thiner), and is hard/almost impossible because how to bend/warp (melengkungkan) the kembang kacang by the time iron is hot.
Dave, kembang kacang is resulted (dihasilkan) from process of splitting-up iron/blade and (dipuntir = English?)
Again, So....if kembang kacang is already thin, then is almost impossible/hard because easy get broken.

Dave, sorry....I tried my best to explain it in your languages

Dave, the blade is ASLIES but the pamor is not my taste

Why did the Ganja not take the stain in the same way the rest of the blade did ?
Possibly it is not made from the same forging ?
