I understand your wanting to concentrate on the blade and agree that it is, indeed, the heart of the matter, but i also like to view the keris first as an ensemble as i believe this is important to the overall appreciation of the keris and it's sociological context. It is the way the keris wuld first be seen in a public setting. It helps to put the keris in perspective.
