Antique Islamic Javanese Indonesian Sword Dagger Kris Keris Java

Antique Islamic Javanese Indonesian Islamic short sword—dagger, Kris, Keris with an old 17th–18th-century well-made serpentine-shaped blade and 19th-century mountings. 
The blade with 9 luk (waves) is hand-forged with a beautiful pamor pattern. It is mounted in 19th-century fittings, including a hilt (hulu) made of trembalo wood in the Yogyakarta style with typical carvings.
Warangka Ladrang type Keris with a nice flamed Timoho wood pattern. 
It has a brass, half-open engraved pendok, a Blewah model slot showing the precious wood. The back of the brass pendok is engraved with an old Javanese script within a laurel wreath.
Keris blades made of Pamor were highly valuable and considered timeless. They were passed down from father to son and used by the next generations. This meant that even blades dating as far back as the 15th century were still being used in the 19th century, albeit with a new 19th-century mounting. This practice was also common in Japan, where expensive old sword blades were remounted with new mountings and used throughout the 19th and 20th centuries.
