Wink Looking for info on contemporary Keris Buda´s

Greetings.

have been away for a while but back again... I have managed to form a liking towards the shape of the Keris Buda. Please - if you have any recently made Buda´s let´s see ´em

Of course The Old stuff is also more than welcomed...

Thanks,

J

Here's a somewhat unusual current era KB Jussi.

Weight is 800grms.

Length is 43cm (17").

This is a very massive KB.

There are several substances that are used to achieve an aged look. This blade probably used two , one after the other.

To many people the finish that this blade carries is seen as desireable.
