Does anyone care to expound upon the meaning or purpose of the puthut dhapur? How does the meaning or purpose change if it is a single or a double? Who were these blades suited to? I have heard some conflicting stories and love to hear what members here think.

So is it that no one knows any answers or theories in regards to these questions or is it that you would rather not say? I realize that much keris info has been lost over the years and answers change from one period to the next, but surely someone must at least have some folklore to share on this subject.
