[QUOTE=rasjid]Hi everyone, 
  
A very interesting topic. 
I recently focus my observation on my Jogjakarta and Surakarta Hilt, and I finally come with a short conclusion about "cecekan" in keris hilt. 
I found this small "mark' on my hilt. 
I've search for the same "mark" on several keris hilt (with various "cecekan" quality) and I found that the better keris hilt always shows this "mark". 
 
I haven't take the picture on Surakartan hilt yet, but I know its there indeed. 
come on, have A look at your keris hilt, it might have the same "mark" as mine. 
it's a very small carving but comes in a very good detail.  
this is my best Jagjakarta hilt, kemuning wood with chatoyant" or, "nginden" .
