Absolutely. When i see keris for sale that are ascribed to dukun it becomes an immediate red flag for me. Sellers use this as a selling point for Western collectors hoping to purchase a piece of "magic". Mostly these are pretty rough looking specimens forged with little skill and often badly maintained as well.
