Kris Cundrik or kris patrem ?

[Michel]

Let us now look at that very short kris panjang !
I found it already broken and with a very ugly piece of wood as handle.
I am still surprised at the width of the gandar that Nik produced.
The reason must probably what you explain : The panjang form have similar shorter forms known as bahari, alang and anak alang.
And I guess he wanted also to show the perfect stria of the "senoh" wood
The hulu jawa demam and the buntu are wery well done.

The next phtos deal with this strange kris jawa(?). No conclusion to be made on the sarong and sampir as I made it with the wood I had here. I made an error in the angle between the sampir and the gandar. I have been also very simple with the buntut.
The hulu is particular and has been discussed on the forum a few years back. Nobody was able to trace its origin. I found it in Jogjakarta.
