Hello Penangsang
Thank you for your clarification. Yes, different languages can sometimes be a problem. My native language is German, and I sometimes find it rather difficult to express myself clearly in English. Well, my keris will arrive soon. Then I`ll see what I`ve bought. Best regards, Heinz |

Dear Penangsang
In the "Multiply" forum (November 2008) I found a Malay discussion regarding a Naga Pattani keris. Could this be the discussion you are refering to? If so, the "mystery" is solved: The keris in that discussion (straight blade) and my keris (13-luk blade) are definitively not identical! Furthermore, the naga`s style is not the same. Best regards, Heinz |

Naga keris arrived
My Naga keris finally arrived. Its overall appearance and my feeling tell me it`s old and original. But who knows ... Anyway, I like it a lot!
Regards, Heinz |

Hello David
I would really like to post pictures, not only of this Naga keris but also of several other keris I own. But before I can do this, I need to buy a good camera, a new computer and -- last but not least -- I need to learn how to take decent photos (something that I`ve never been able to manage so far ...). Well, maybe a friend can help out. Have a nice weekend. Regards, Heinz |

Dear All,
your comments on this one are most welcome, becouse I have not any experience with this kind of keris at all. |

 .. although the naga worksmanship is no where near javanese naga.. it's simple form does compliment the blade in it's simplicity.. I like it.. I've seen this naga form before, with bugis fittings.. Any idea what the three leaf near the head of the 'naga' represents? |
