I have a good friend who also happens to be one of the greats of the keris world. He has lived in Indonesia for extended periods of time, and that includes living in Bali for a number of years. His knowledge of things Balinese is probably quite a bit better than my own.

So, I had this brilliant idea. I though:- how about if I refer this Demon Frog query to me old mate?

Which I did.

And the answer came directed in a writing unexpected,

And I think the same was written on a keyboard dipped in bile

( Sorry Banjo -- couldn't help meself)

Stripped of extraneous comment it was this:-

answers to difficult questions are not like bananas:- they do not grow on trees.

This is a difficult question; the frog togogan has been in Holland for a very long time and will have been looked at by curators who would have searched for a name. But no name has been found.

So, I guess we're just going to have to get along without a name for our little froggy friend.
