Blade of roiling water

Hello Kai,
Nice keris!
I think it is normal for a Palembang piece to have a curing batang (based on my experience).

Hello Kai
I too have a palembang keris with curving batang. The curve is not huge but it is definitely there. Interestingly my keris has a quite similar pamor, you can see waves and whirlpools along the blade.

Just went back to look at all my Palembang kerises' pics, and guess what, all of them had straight batang!

So this is my 1st curved batang for a Palembang.

I guess we learn something new every day.

thanks all for sharing your experience as well.
