Thanks all for your input and info.

Gustav, yes there is a fourth Kinatah (see pic 1)

Allan, why are you so often right ?

Closer inspecition indeed looks like grip marks on the blade (see pic 2)

Best regards,
Willem

I'm not infrequently wrong too, Willem --- even though I've been playing with keris for just about 55 years now.

I agree: vice marks.
As to the marks on top of the ganja, I confess my ignorance.
Nice keris, though, my compliments
