Hi Alan. I am in full agreement with your statements, but i also wonder how you count on a blade like Semar's in the post just above yours. I have always understood that the counting of luks precedes upward towards the tip. To count Semar's keris as luk 3 seems to require that we move downward from the first count. So is this seen as a lurus blade with an unusal bend?
