Hello David,

Also when you, like I know, are afraid to work on blades I would try a mild etch. The blade looks clean enough that the chance is high that it would show a pattern after it.

Hello Mgolab,

Allow me to ask, how did you de-rust the hammer head and finish its surface?

Thank you David! Yes, what we see here is caused by quenching of the blade, exactly what I've meant in post #5. :)

Thank you Marc! :)
My intention is not to make Rob's koummya bad, but to make it clear that what we see here is in no way a lamination in any way. ;)

I think that there is a good possibility that the blade is made from wootz! ;)

Hello Rob,

I don't want to discuss if it is a koummya for use and wear, you have it in hand and I've learned by handling several koummyas that it can be tricky to distinguish between tourist ones...

Hello Rob,

I think what we see here is just the scratch from quenching. It's for sure not any damascus or pattern.

Yes, of course it's a plating but a thick plating I guess. At least the ones in a similar style I've handled had a rather thick plating and not only a thin gold washing. ;)

It would be important to say that scabbard and handle are made of 800 silver and the golden accents are actually made of gold. ;)

Yes, clearly a keris Sombro.

The handle looks in your new pictures much better. The mendak (the ring) is a little bit damaged but I would still use it until you find a better one.

Welcome to the forum Omar,

Looks like a keris picit or pejetan to my eyes. Scabbard is a recent replacement like the handle also. Blade seems to be old but pictures can deceive.

I think it's more of a coincidental similarity. Handle construction, ferrule and also the ricasso (if any) show differences.

Compare with three 19th century examples from my collection.
