Types of Keris

Spunjer · 10th November 2014, 04:55 PM

there are so many ways and reasons to collect kerises. in my case, i'm starting to feel enamored with these beauties, and i would like to approach this as getting an example from different areas, for starters. yes, even though the pattani tajong (thanks, David!) is not considered as Indonesian, i would like to acquire an example from this area as well.
the tajong, or coteng, are pretty easy to spot, being that the pommel is quite unique, and it really stands out. as far as the indonesian varieties, that's when it gets muddled, for me anyways...
