Default what's important; the object or its pamor?

I used to think that pamor was exclusive for keris or tombak but this is neither;(the bottompart of the pictures) no keris no tombak but still Pamor...
Please gentleman, would you be so kind to tell me tell me what it is (maybe even both of them) and why it's has pamor...

I FORGOT, sorry about that....

The contrast in the later pictures is less due the conditions of the light when I was taking those pictures. For the real contrast, please, take a look at the first pictures.

Smile Hi All

I think we're drifting off topic here as this forum is Keris oriented .

BUT

Along with following this thread's intended purpose I would also like to use it as an informal poll of our participants as to what they would consider 'on topic' for this forum .

Thanks
Rick

IMHO, both are "pedang suduk" (thrusting pedang?). The naga relief, in javanese term we call it "naga tapa" (meditating naga)...
