ordinary keris
 
5 Attachment(s)
Here goes an ordinary keris with its ordinary warangka, handle, pendok, and mendak.
this is an example of "cheap" keris that usually found in Jakarta keris market.
This might be a new made keris, but who knows???
people may get lucky, buying a very dirty keris and found a good steel under the heavy rust. but mostly we get what we pay for.

Just have these pictures to share.
Any informations would be great. I bought this keris from a frien in Jakarta . I have a suspect this piece might be a new made one. What do you think?

For less than $20/- is it blade only?
or comes with the nice fittings?

if blade only... it's very cheap...
if it comes with the fittings... then it's super dirt cheap... :D I want one.

I dont know whether it is just me, but I have this weird feeling that this blade may be artificially aged, but of course, I could be wrong.....
