Photos of 13 luk Tombak

Very nice tombak, if I am not mistaken that is dapur Koro Welang with pamor Pedharingan kebak and tangguh mataram senopaten. Probably ex kinatah, if I looked at the metuk.

Hello sipakatuo,


I'm not sure what you mean when you say ex kinatah?

Ok, take a look closely, if you see the metuk there is a cross (X) sign.
On that cross sign probably it used to has kinatah (gold) attached.
In the old days, tombak or spears that were made special with good quality of pamor, iron, and garapan almost have kinatah made of gold, brass, etc.

Thanks Sipakatuo, I see what your talking about now, the markings carved into the metuk (ring). I actually never noticed them before
