Maybe other friends are better informed.



Hi Gio,

Iron Chloride would be a much safer option. Thanks for the info.

Hello David,

here are two Bali keris examples from my collection which have also a belly at the gandik area. Sorry for picture quality, I have taken the pictures just before with flash light. The first two pictures are the same keris.

Regards,

Detlef

Whoa, the blade came out nicely after your light cleaning. The state of stain does make a big difference in the aesthetics of a keris blade.
