I have only one in my collection, so the decision was not really hard

A Keris Palembang with a fine carved ivory hilt and a very nice blade.
Merry christmas in advance,
Robin

Very fine keris sir! And happy holidays indeed. How old would something like this be? I'm curious as I'm not that privy to keris info.

Here's my K(e)rismas photo from last year, featuring three of my favorite pieces.

Season's greetings,

Leif, I vote to etch that kalis, might have surprises

Nice old archaic Sulu kris with horn hilt and suassa fittings. Simple but elegant.

Elegant archaic kalis Ian. The horn hilt-suassa combination is topnotch! Hope all's going well down under

Thanks for your nice comments, the other pieces shown here are also very handsome.

I will open a thread in the right forum tomorrow, maybe with additional photos.
I wouldn't like to board this Kristmas thread

That is indeed a lovely Palembang keris. You really should post it for discussion and let the keris clan have a better look at it.

Well, for some reason i have not really photographed any of my Moro kris collection.

Though it does seems...well, unseemly, to post keris outside of the keris forum

here is one of my favorite keris.
Happy Holidays everyone!

Lovely keris examples! I'm beginning to develop a keris fondness and seeing why they're addicting to collect as well! Rick, really nice archaic twistcore kalis!
