Very fine keris sir! And happy holidays indeed. How old would something like this be? I'm curious as I'm not that privy to keris info. |

That is indeed a lovely Palembang keris. You really should post it for discussion and let the keris clan have a better look at it. ![]() |

![]() Well, for some reason i have not really photographed any of my Moro kris collection.
![]() Though it does seems...well, unseemly, to post keris outside of the keris forum ![]() Happy Holidays everyone! ![]() Last edited by David : 18th December 2020 at 10:27 PM. |

![]() Lovely keris examples! I'm beginning to develop a keris fondness and seeing why they're addicting to collect as well! Rick, really nice archaic twistcore kalis!

![]() OK, i do have one photo of my favorite Moro kris. This kris is particularly special to me because it is actually the very first ethnographic edged weapon i ever acquired. This is what started my passion. If there could only be one...
The fittings on the hilt are a fairly high grade silver and the asang-asang is suassa. ...and a Blessed Krismas to you all. ![]() ![]() |
