What kind of tools are used to carve a keris?
I'm interested in finding out what kind of tools are used to do the complex carving and shaping of a keris blade after forging.
What old-style and newer tools would be used? |
Hi Montino,
Have you seen the Forge Work section under Pictures at Alan's site ? :) |
I can't find it right now, but i think i remember a recent thread where Alan posted images of his own inherited carving tools. Maybe he can direct us to it. :)

Post 59 in the meteoric patrem thread has pics of some of my tools.
As David says, I also posted a pic of Empu Suparman's tools, but I don't know where. |
Dear All,

Thanks Gustav. That's the tools I inherited from Empu Suparman, but my own tools are here:-
