A pity I can't attend because of the distance.
But this year I have sent a, not before published, Keris to represent me.

Default A beautiful piece

Michael,

I've seen and handled this beauty. With it's new fittings, a sight to behold. I won't be putting any of my pieces against it in this category.

I should be thanking you for sharing this piece with us.
What I'm trying to say earlier is, my humble pieces cannot match yours, in Category 5. Good Luck.

Thanks Kai Wee and Shahrial,

I wasn't aware of that Adni had sneak previews before the competition.

Hi Michael,

Not that Adni wanted to have sneak previews, but a good keris cannot be hidden, just as paper cannot wrap around fire. Kerises joining the competition will eventually be known. It happens to all of our pieces.
