I am in agreement that the gonjo on this keris is indeed missing.

 Nice hilt, the pendokok (hilt ring), not a form commonly associated with Peninsular Malay piece.. the pamor, using malay pamor name, is gigi yu (shark teeth).

Guys , here some photo,s of the peksi.
If the ganja is lost or removed it happend a long time ago , there is no diffrence in collor on the peksi and the peksi has the same collor tone as the blade. Any body has a idea for the age from the blade. |

Thanks for the additional pics, Danny.
Yes, I am of the opinion that the gonjo is missing from this blade. As for hilt material, I'm sorry but my experience in this area is inadequate to permit positive identification, most especially from photos. |
