Nice work!
Still, the sheath is blade-less until now? That's a three-years' celibacy indeed |

Finally the keris is completed. The hilt get a bath in benzine to remove the coating from shellac, the nose has had two repairs with wood filler, maybe the reason for the shellac coating. And I have used the Malay blade with the broken kembang kacang since this blade fits nearly perfect the scabbard.
Here some pictures. |

Hi Detlef,
a beautiful piece, no difference to a 100% original coteng for my eyes. The blade fits perfect into the scabbard, very nice combination! I hope, you will find the silver coteng, that you are looking for such a long time in the near future. I will show my coteng with an old european restauration here until the scabbard is back from the jeweler. Best wishes, Roland |

thank you for your kind words! I am not really sure if this is a correct blade for a coteng. Regards, Detlef |
