I gather so. They are still pictures from an American Martial Art documentary made in 1982. The man pictured was an official representative of an Indonesian Pentjak Silat organization being interviewed. He was asked to show something for the camera. I gather that the hardware used in the filming - witnessed by these pictures - was brought to the scene by the organizers of the filming. Maybe. Anyway lets move forward. Please

Thanks,

I recognize those pictures. They are of Pendekar Eddie Jafri from his interview with Greg Alland. I wondered about all of the stuff hanging from his keris when I watched the video. I've never seen anything like it.
