Hi Henri,
thats a very nice example , are the fittings silver ? Mine only has a brass collar (broken) as shown in the original pictures in my first post.

Can you have a situation where two Keris can have the same quality blade and hilt but the fittings can vary greatly in value / cost ? Or are the more expensive fittings only placed on the better/best quality blades ?

Kind Regards
David
