thks tok janggut and marko.....i am not sure whether HB V era (mid 19 C) is considered old or new, but like I said earlier, this keris was said to be made within the kraton of Sultan Hamengkubuwono V. Within the kraton, there were 2 besalen fully under the patronage of the sultan, one being Sri Manganti and the other one I forgot the name, but went on to create another besalen in Magetan during the Jawa War between VOC and Pangeran Diponegoro.
