My first Keris
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			Hello, 
 
Here's the first keris I bought 8 years ago in Graz (Austria). 
This javanese keris is very modest quality. It seems pre WWII. At that time I knew very little about the keris, but I really liked the pamor. 
 
Now when I look, I realize that there is something anormal about ricikan. 
Or : someone wanted to remove rust of the blade ( with a very brutal way) and filed down the reliefs. 
Either: the original dapur not possessed of Kembang Kacang and it has been created later by an awkward artisan. 
 
What do you think?
