Default Naga keris arrived

My Naga keris finally arrived. Its overall appearance and my feeling tell me it`s old and original. But who knows ... Anyway, I like it a lot!

Regards,

Heinz

Hello David

I would really like to post pictures, not only of this Naga keris but also of several other keris I own. But before I can do this, I need to buy a good camera, a new computer and -- last but not least -- I need to learn how to take decent photos (something that I`ve never been able to manage so
far ...). Well, maybe a friend can help out.

Have a nice weekend. Regards,

Heinz

Dear All,

your comments on this one are most welcome, becouse I have not any experience with this kind of keris at all.

Nice and unique keris form, congratulations .. although the naga worksmanship is no where near javanese naga.. it's simple form does compliment the blade in it's simplicity.. I like it..

I've seen this naga form before, with bugis fittings..
Any idea what the three leaf near the head of the 'naga' represents?
