Hello Erik,
This old blade has 5 waves so IMO the dapur is not Megantara nor any of the established dapur types in Central Java.

Hello Jean,

Thanks for your comment, what is the implication - that it was made in Madura?

Regards, Erik

Hello Erik,
I have no clear idea but my personal guess would rather be an old javanese village or trade blade but other opinions are welcome

Hey Erik…i just wanted to repeat Rick's request that you upload these and future images directly to the site instead of using photo bucket or other off-site photo servers. We have noticed that you did that in the Sunggingan thread as well. Direct uploads help us maintain an illustrated archive for future viewings and saves the researcher from fruitless searches that end in picture-less forum discussions.These conversations are always disjointed due to the disconnect created by the loss of visual examples. If you are unclear how to upload directly here is a link that holds some directions.

Thanks!
