Hi Marco, I think ... yes they stil make keris in same way like in the past time (stil traditional way) . They stil use PARON and PERAPEN (traditional burning ? ).

In my opinion, keris maker will became empu if he know/understand about history,philosophy and totality about keris culture. It is not just to know how to make keris.
