Need your ID about this blade. Can this blade be classified as Surakarta blade? Or probably Yogyakarta? The blade is quite thick but not wide enough as classified as SKA keris. Seems like Mageti style but pesi shape is not what people call as 'sirah gundolo' pesi as a main feature of Mageti blade. I look forward your opinion on this blade.. Thanks in advance.

Hello Karttikeya,
Just my 2 cents to get the ball rolling: This blade looks more like it was made by a Madurese bladesmith, doesn't it? Regards, Kai |

The ganja is curved (sebit ron tal), the greneng is a bit odd and the wadidang is unusually flared, it does seem to be not a typical blade from Central Java, may be a recent piece?

OK, here's "anything".
It does not look like either of the two Mageti keris that I have seen. It has some similarities to the work of Djeno Harumbrodjo, but is less refined. Might be Djeno's work on a bad day. Might be an intended copy in the style of Djeno. Might be by one of Djeno's relatives. Doesn't look like Madura or East Jawa work, but anything is possible from that direction. Is not the work of any Solo maker I can recognise. Cannot be classified as Surakarta because the rondha is totally, totally wrong, the pawakan is too slim and wimpy, the blumbangan does not appear to be boto adeg. |
