Keris Surakarta today's buy.
Today's buy,
I bought this Keris from a colleague he inherited together with some other Tjikeroe knives and Golok from his deceased father in law who was stationed in Indonesia just before the war. I found this Keris appealing to me despite the relatively thin blade. (Not super thin) I don't know the Dapur and the ganja is in a form I have not seen often. The dress is relatively simple and plain and does not fit very good inside the Warangka but the ganja is of nice proportion with the curled up grening. I guess the mendak is a cage mendak from West Java if I am correct.
Who can share some more info about it. I thi k it has 7 Luk
