Thanks for your insight.
I posted this keris in some Facebook groups in Indonesia and I got many many private offers to buy it. I was trying to gather information and piece together from each person I talked to about it, and I got conflicting opinions and of course that was to be expected but I was told the name of the Mpu they thought it was more than once was the Name Brojokaryo. And more of those guys tended to think it was a PB IV era. I’m curious to whether it may have some of the meteoritic iron allotted to the royal courts because of the Keleng Pamor. My intelligence gathering from speaking to the Indonesians on Facebook they said it’s a rare shape super Langka is what they used to describe it, and tried to explain it is not a Keris a common person could afford to have made etc. this is the toughest item from my grandfathers collection I’ve had with research. I’m stuck on the vz22 bayonets if thats what they are, and I have two German swords from pre ww2. Aside from that I’m afraid to ship it anywhere over seas to have a Waranga done to it, and I haven’t found anyone in USA that can help me with that
