Ganja, would it be possible for you to do a close up of the sorsoran, and the pesi, I would especially like to see clearly the last , say, half inch of the pesi as it enters the gonjo.Thanks, Alan.

Yes Alan,
For the sake of the keris knowledge, this is the picture you wish to see...

Hello Pak Ganja,

Very mean looking keris. I would think 10 times before engaging a combat duel with a person wielding it

.

I think the hilt is of Bugis Sumbawa origin. The rest, except for the ferrule are either Bugis or Bugis influence.

I would think 20 times either

The blade is so "hurting". My finger was bleeding when I was rinsing it with water...

Thanks Ganja, you've put my mind at rest.

Don't think I've ever seen that type of blade with that pamor.

Thanks again.
