The answer is probably yes and no. This is a thoroughly modern creation, but it is done in the style of keris sajen, having an all-in-one construction of all metal. But i somehow doubt it has the same talismanic intention that a true keris sajen would have so perhaps it needs a different name. It seems like a keris created for collection to me. As such is is an attractive piece.

Hmmm... a mixed styled. A modern creation. How about "Keris Pandawa Sajen" for a name. Dapur style looks like Pandawa Luk 5 with a sajen styled hilt. Just my 2 cents worth.

Hartcone, can you please add some close up of the part near the base (Ganja). You have a very intresting shaped elephant tongue there.
Its probably not an old blade, but it seems to have some quality. Would love to see more.
