2nd result, this time we tried using besi wulung.
We both knew that both keris are stil way too far from perfect, but we are satisfied for the beginning of making these keris sundang project, Just a little bit information that the young pande keris never make this kind of keris type, only javanese keris.
Regards,
Brekele.

Thank you Marco & Battara for your comment.

@Marco : I put a piece thin plat of iron, I was thinking also to put shell on the hilt and warangka, but I guess this kind of work must be done it in lombok Island, because there...some people can make real good work for putting shell on the wood (At Jangkuk Sayang-sayang village).

@Battara : What is the meaning of MOP? Thank you.

Hello Brekele,

very nice work! I like special the second one. MOP means Mother of Pearl, the shell from Natilus.

Best,

Detlef
