What do I have?

I would add that being village work (this is not a bad thing necessarily) .......... Sometimes the smith's intent of the dhapur form can be interpreted in more than one way; that's why I followed my guess with a question mark .

More, I cannot answer .

It is the same keris when my eyes not morbid.

And BBJW get a very comprehensive answer from Alan G. Maisey. But BBJW may want to know more?

Maybe he can specify his question.

Yes it is and I forgot to put a tag on it. I didn't mean to imply that I recently purchased this. I was just getting pieces ready to sell that I have picked up over the years that don't really interest me and still couldn't pass up at the time. Collecting can be a disease!

Thanx
