I'm sorry my friend, but I have to insist that this one is definitely Pedaringan Kebak.

Attached is the picture of another Keris that I have which Wos Wutah pamor.

However, I would really like to know whether this Keris is indeed a Carita Keprabon. What would be the things to look at?

Hello Peter,

my understanding of pamor P.K. is a very fine pamor wos wutah which covers nearly the entire surface of the blade, look for example the in post # 1 shown example from Marco in this thread: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ght=pedaringan
Frankly said is the blade of your keris so worn that it is IMHO not possible to say if we have here a Pedaringan Kebak pamor, could be or could not be.
Maybe Alan can enlighten us.

Regards,

Detlef
