I think that you may have missed Alan's point. If Semar's keris is outside of any accepted kraton pakem i don't think you can call it by any accepted dhapur, can you?
"Semar's keris is outside the guidelines, thus in the strictest sense, and most certainly for application of any of the protocol that is used in keris appraisal, this cannot be appraised as one would appraise a keris."
