A question about a Keris

Flavio, what the coconut water and the pineapple juice will do that the stell wool never can is to actually etch your keris to help bring out the pamor pattern. Then, if you are adventurous, you can try applying arsenic and lime juice to darken the iron further and allow the pamor material to really stand out. None of that is capable with steel wool, which will merely help to remove some of the dirt.
