Javanese keris for comment

[Rick]

Empu Kumis has brought this subject up .

I got the initial impression of 'new' about this blade myself , and have had it since I first saw the pictures .

I can't speak to the rest of the dress .

I believe the pendok may be white brass / German silver, I have a similar example , it is fairly heavy gauge material and tends toward yellow in color when left unpolished .
