New madura keris - for study

satsujinken · 4th November 2016, 10:26 AM

Hi all

just got this keris, a bare blade from a good friend of mine
one glance, and I knew already this was made in Sumenep - and I was right

the blade is very nice, well-balanced, and since it was a new keris, it's still in pristine condition, and quite sharp

should we classify this one as Sempaner ?

the pamor should be bonang rinenteng and wengkon, with mas kumambang as ganja pamor

this one comes without sandhangan, no hilt, no mendak, no sheath, just bare blade

any comments ?

Hello,
I don't clearly see a pamor pattern Bonang Rinenteng/ Sarenteng?
Regards

apologize, I will try to take more detailed pics, apparently the last owner also decide to stain the blade to jet black, and somehow the pamor is subdued

Hello Satsujinken,
Thank you. I attach the pics of 2 blades with clear pamor Bonang Rinenteng for your reference.
The dapur of your blade is not Sempaner IMO since it has a clear ada-ada, kruwingan, and gusen especially.
Regards
