Hullo AM,

Thanks for your comments!

Pamor: not an issue under traditional Soenda values; 'whatever comes out of the melting-pot’, not built-in design.

However, this is clearly not a random pamor: this pattern is achieved only by intentional surface manipulation (i. e. boring holes and flattening the billet).

There also seem to be other examples of Sunda blades with "designed" pamor types. Are these just exceptions?

Regards,
Kai
