			I recently got this keris Madura, someone "restored" it's blade: he sanded it, repainted it with silver paint (  
		
		
		
			  ) and varnish.After removing the paint (just that) this was the result; some pamor at the base and some near the tip. To be so rude, what is your advice: do I have to clean it further or do I have to leave it this way? thanks Sukuh  |

			About the pamor; on the pictures there's a "line" visible, running along the spine, in real that's almost impossible to see (  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	  )By "do I have to clean it further or do I have to leave it this way?" I did mean: is this keris worth the effort or keep it as an example how people treat kerisses? sukuh  |

			Luckily the previous owner didnot "restore" the beautiful hilt and sheath...  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	  Yes, I 2nd the motion - the keris definitely worth further cleaning...  |
