in northern Malaysia term, Rick's so called sepokal is lok 1, though i would prefer calling it lurus (usually sepokal has to be curvy).

One is the correct numeric value for a straight keris, but that does not make it a keris with one wave.

If "luk satu" is valid terminology in some areas, I suspect that what we might be seeing is a local corruption of a half understood idea.

Urubing dilah is a three wave dhapur.

Those who would name it as a straight dhapur are in disagreement with the pakem produced under the aegis of Kanjeng Gusti Pangeran Harya Hadiwijaya, son of Ingkang Sinuhun Kanjeng Susuhunan Pakubuwana X of Keraton Surakarta Hadiningrat.
