Triadi,
Welcome to the forum and thank you for sharing your keris. I've seen such keris before and I do like this appearance.
I do remember that such a keris dapur has been discussed before in the forum. If i remeber well it was said that those dapurs were made later in the kerisblade to make it more attractive and also to sell to the tourists.
If i count well you are the fifth generation holding this keris. Was this dapur made originally when your great, greatgrandfather received this keris? Or was this dapur added later to the keris? Does your family know?
