A name like UNTUK-UNTUKAN was given to me. Don't know about that nor it's meaning but I do know about PAMOR UNTUK BANYU and it has these waves as well.

Sorry Alan, you mixed the sides up.

The size is a bit larger than a standard Javanese pendok...

Of course a ganjairas is a feature often seen...

Confusing thoughts but thanks anyway.

Thanks David and Alan!
Indeed the Ladrang scabbard once had a ripandan but worn out.
With this knowledge we can pinpoint it as a Solo scabbard / kris?
I have got another one which has almost the...

Kinatah not very old I agree nor superbly made but blade has the perfect fit into a typical ladrang capu slot opening so why Javanese? NG pamor is a wellknown Madurese pamor.

The kinatah is 18 or maybe 22 carat gold? Additional kinatah makes it a precious piece. There is red...
