It might be a little bit difficult to get the heat exactly where you want it with a gas stove, Sid. In Jawa I use a candle --- I use a candle in Oz too, if i run out of gas.

A candle flame is dirty, but it cleans off easily with turps --- ie, mineral turpentine.

Got hilt off with stronger flame. Thanks for advising on this. Pics below. Looks better by a mile. Anyone know where I can get an uwer from? None on the bay. I quite like this keris. It's one of the better ones I have.

Looks great! Nice keris. You can find new ewer online with a Google search (try Bali Art Shop Keris).

Hi Sid,

A nice Bali keris! Order a few more uwer, the seller is situated on Bali, the shipping will be too expensive for one uwer only.

Regards,
Detlef
