Dear Henk,
thank's for reply. Isn't the wrongko/warangka not the same style like the keris in this thread: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=7839
I also thought long time that it is a Madura wrongko.
Regards,
Detlef

Dear Detlef,

I will eat my hat if that wrongko isn't from Madura. Certainly not Cirebon. The style is ladrang and most ladrang wrongko's have that similar style and one has sometimes to look very careful to notice the differences between the regions.

In return I give you this link. Study, but above all, enjoy!!

Dear Henk,
I don't want that you have to eat your hat . You are right, on the second page of the link Mr. Maisey show a wrongko very similar to mine. But so the handle have also Maduran style and goes with the wrongko?
