Thank you very much Ganjawulung .

It would be interesting to have a thread on the iron itself .

If I may, is this below also an example of nyerat; or more like your description of ngawat ?

It depends of what you feel when groping the blade. "Nyerat" is smoother than "ngawat", although both are "nyerat" type. Visually, the "fiber" of "ngawat" is bigger than "nyerat". Maybe like "beras wutah" (wos wutah), and "pedaringan kebak" in pamor term. "Pedaringan kebak" is a dense "beras wutah"...

It is more like "ngawat", Rick...

Interesting question, Cahaya,

I will ask for second or third opinion on this, and try to find (hopefully) the right answer for you. Thanks, Cahaya...
