Hi All
A few years ago I picked up this keris and there was some different opinions on it's age. I would like to reintroduce this blade for some further discussions. Lew |

Its old Lew,but I cannot say how old.
In the hand, and in stain , it would be pretty easy to give it a classification (tangguh), but from a pic, and out of stain its just too hard, even so, it looks as if it might be Tuban, or Tuban-Pajajaran, and although this doesn't help a whole lot with accurate dating in the terms that you and I understand, it does mean that it is no youngster.It has been tidied up a little bit. |

Alan could be right about this. IMO the angle of the peksi to the rest of the willah does say Tuban.
By the way Alan did you have some time to have al look at my site? Regards Michel, Amsterdam Last edited by kulbuntet; 9th October 2008 at 12:17 AM. |

Wel thank you Marco. It is a free site, very basic and simple. i have tryed to make the best with the possibilities that i got with the site. As you could see, i have lots of info on there, and my own collection sorted by region. If you click on the red text under de region keris you get link to a subsite with all my keris of that region. Some region ar still sort on numbers, but i hope that wil change soon. ( onley in my regret sort om funds... hope that wil change soon too
