Here are some of variations of the supposed to be Sumatran double greneng...

Dear Ganjawulung,

all in my collection have also this double greneng.

Would you please upload your collection? Especially the keris panjang form, or bahari kerises...

Thanks in advance, Sajen,

Here is another panjang.

It is not mine but I do have it hone at the moment. The owner asked me to sell this one for him but I am tempted to buy it myself.

Expect to get another one that I already did buy last week.
As soon as it is here I will upload a picture.

Regards, Erik

Hi Erik,
buy it! It's a nice complete example, only the tips of the wrangka are broken.

My Goodness,
... anytime if I want to see good examples of keris panjang, then I must go to Europe. Not to Suimatra anymore.

Thanks Erik, and Sajen for the picture sharing.

Dear Pak Ganja,

nothing to thank. And your examples also very nice.

Pak Ganja also many thanks to you for sharing these great examples!
One question my example had a ship made of horn, not wood.
Is this common with the crescent shaped ships?
The ukiran is of wood which I think in most examples is made of horn?

Regards, Erik

Hello Ganjawulung,

your wish is my order!
Here my three panjang. The longest one is 58 cm long (only the blade without peksi) and have pamor, I think this is rare.
The small one is only 36 cm. Sorry that the pictures not the best quality, I take them very fast.
