Hi Bladder,

I agree with Nechesh and BluErf that the keris which you attached is a new made from Madura Island. The scratched on the blade (Sorsoran), pamor work and the iron has shown it. But, I think its nice to begining collect the keris

I join the opinion of these gentlemen.

Could be the washing, but the ganja looks more recent then the blade.
The Blade itself does'nt seems to recent to me.
I agree with the other gentleman that the blade origins from madura.
... a nice keris after all.

Simatua,

The ganja doesn't belong to this blade and is added to make the blade complete.
Believe us, the blade is recent.
