Experience Bart.

Lots and lots and lots of experience.

In the field of keris I have over 50 years worth of experience. I have been taught by the best and most knowledgeable people in this field. I can still make mistakes.

I have seen errors made by the man who is perhaps the foremost connoisseur of Javanese art and the keris.

The whole experience of weapons study and collecting is an ongoing exercise in learning. It never stops.
