Qs on this spokal (?) keris
Won this one recently and have not received it This is the only picture I have for this keris.But I have a few questions that I hope some of us here can clarify.Blade length is approx 33 cm.
1) Where is this blade from? My guess is either Sumatera, Sulawesi or Malaysia.
The sarong/sheath looks Malaysian (Kelantan Sampir) to me but the hilt looked more like Jawa Demam of Sumatera type.Pendokok is probably Malaysian too.
2) Would this be considered as spokal (sapukala) type?
3) The picture is not good, are those white spots some kind of pamor or just dirt or worn out defects. The blade looked grainy and dirty to me.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
