I HAVE SEEN BLADES LIKE THIS BEFORE AND THEY SEEM TO BE ENTIRELY PAMOR NOT LIKE SOME THAT HAVE PAMOR APPLIED OVER A STEEL CORE. THE YEARS AND RITUAL CLEANING DO TAKE A TOLL ON THE BLADE AND MAKE IT TOO FRAGILE FOR A WEAPON BUT PERHAPS MORE TREASURED AS A PUSAKA. IF THESE TERMS APPLY TO DAGGERS OTHER THAN KERIS.??
THE SCABBARD AND HANDLE MAY BE NEWER THAN THE BLADE BUT APPEAR TO HAVE AGE AND TO HAVE SEEN USE. HARD TO JUDGE FROM PICTURES.
