Angle between ganja and pesi

Hi Rick,
Thanks for your answer. There are two angles to consider:
The first that you mentioned with your first picture: is not 90°. It is systematically slightly off 90°.
The second is the clearly seen on your second picture : If you prolonged the Axe of the ganja you have clear angle with the Axe of the blade.
I have read something somewhere, but can't remember where and it was linked to fighting with keris. I do not believe very much in the fighting abilities of the keris and think that many of its Subtleties are derived from other reasons. But one never knows !
I am ready to listen to any valid explanation
Thanks, regards,
Michel
