Another Surakarta Keris

[kai]

Hello YS,

Thanks for posting - looks like a recent piece to me.

I don't think this blade should be hold to keraton standards. One general question regarding the wengkon pamor though: Would the sogokan/kruwingan carving biting into the wengkon layer be considered a flaw for high-end keris? Or would an even exposure be the main goal aimed for?

Regards,
Kai
