This keris is in my opinion a combination of parts from different culture.
The sheath and pendokok look like Malaysian (probably kelantan/patani) , and the blade does not fit perfectly in this sheath. The hilt is also Malay or sumatran (?) but the blade is certainly not from the Malay world but my guess is Java based on the presence of tikel alis (which Malay blades don't have). The pesi is thick and short which is not typical of Javanese blades (or probably shortened?) Can anyone please confirm where this blade is from? what type ? A guess of possible age ? Should I replace the blade with a malay keris to go with this sheath and hilt? . |
