Well Rasdan, just the fact that it was presented to you by a relative would me enough for me to consider this a keeper.
I would do my best to remove or at least halt the rust, re-dress it nicely, oil it and treat it with gentle loving care. It would appear that this was once a very nice keris. I suspect this is a Bugis blade as well. |
