			Welcome to the forum. It would be helpful if you posted some images of the entire blade as well.

			Yes La Pagaru, it looks like contemporary work. Would love to see more of the blade for a better sense of the over all garap.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	As a point of process, like all new members you are in moderated status which requires that a moderator (myself or Rick) approve you posts before they appear. So if you don't see your post immediately please don't re-post. Either myself or Rick will get to your post in short order and pass it on to the forum. Thanks!

			I don't know much about Indonesian Kerises, but I certainly like the pamor of this one and would love to see the whole blade!

			There is no keris upon which to pass comment, there is only a short section of very badly executed pattern welding.
