Sorry, wrong written, the publisher is : Sekretariat Nasional Keris Indonesia, not Konggres Nasional Keris Indonesia, it is resume of Konggres Nasional I at Surakarta, April, 19-21th, 2011. Good book for compare the recent knowledge about naming of the dapur, tangguh, pamor, mendak, warangka, pendok, also including the collector who have had the article, showing from page nr. 52 to 352, so much pics.

For additional information, this book looks like "repeat" of the previously book title Keris Untuk Dunia, so if for knowledge you don't need it but useful for compare what is the recent opinion about keris.

I received a copy of this book this morning and have now completed a browse of the photos and captions, and read a couple of the articles.

The format is similar to last year's KUD, but the content in this year's book demonstrates a much higher degree of professionalism.

Its a good book.

Its all about very good photos of very nice keris, rather than the provision of knowledge, but it is well and truly worth getting hold of, if you can.
