hi there
as i read above ,here i attach some pictures of a figure on the kerisses gandhik ,especially lombok blade.
the first one i call Bhoma ,but some people in lombok also call it Kala Rahu.
and the 2nd one is Kala Sungsang ( the upside down giant )
as a newbie ,i am waiting for any comments from you guys ,to give me more and improve my li'l knowledge about the ancients weapons.

thanks and regards ,

I like the upside down Kala Sungsang. I would be interested in hearing more stories about this fellow. The images i found don't really tell the tale.

It appears that additional material was sandwiched around the original gandik area to create the Kala Rahu.
