Default Naga Kris

Just Warming up this forum a bit, and please consider as my introduction to this forum

now this is one of my collection, though not the very good one

this one was rescued from a collection of more than 1000 krisses / swords / tumbaks (lance head) from a collector

according to me, this was a kamardikan, or newly made ... being newly made, of course could means 20 - 60 years old

found without hilt and sheath, and have to found one that fits, though not elaborate / expensive one

at first this keris is totally covered in rust, and simple traditional process of rust removal and warangan reveal it's true form

dhapur : nogo rojo
luk : 13
tangguh : kamardikan
kinatah mas

now ... oiled with choji oil

pardon the quality of the pics, as I took them with phone camera
