It is not possible to make a Tuban blade look like a Surakarta blade.
Maybe what we see here is the correct colour for this blade.
Look at the examples I have posted:- there is a lot of variation in colour, and this is only a small sample, in reality, blade colours can vary a lot more than this.
Because of the limits of the material we need to be able to classify a blade according to tangguh so that we can recognise when the blade colour is correct.
