I have a piece in my collection which has baffled me for a while. It has features of a tajong, like elaborate crown, beard, and a more abstract anthropomorphic form. But instead of a regular tajong sheath, it was affixed to a coteng style sheath which was larger than usual. The blade is what my group of collectors here in Sg refer to as "Chenok" style, after the place the form is said to originate from.
Can your collector friends share their opinion on the origin of this keris pls? Tks Last edited by BluErf; 29th June 2015 at 02:04 PM. Reason: Typo |

Coteng versus Tajong
The Coteng has various sizes and the rare one is as long as the Tajong..
