New Keris, Some questions
Hi All,
Long time since I posted here. I acquired this Keris last week. I think it is a “recent” blade from the 1950ies? Can you help me with the pamor type? Thank you in advance, Michel |

Michel, keris production really halted during WWII and didn't start up again until the the mid-1970s. I would say that your keris was made in Madura, probably not until sometime in the 1980s or 90s.

Yes, I agree with that, I think 1980's, not 1990's.
Pamor is wos wutah (beras wutah, wosing wutah), it is a random pamor, the pattern is accidental, not intentional. |

Thank you both very much, Learned something, I didn’t knew about the production stop.
Thanks for the pamor identification. Kind regards, Michel |
