			The replacement pendok looks good Martin, though i do believe with just a little bit of effort you could restore the original one to a fairly decent condition.

			Thanks David,  and yes i will see if i can get the old one in a more acceptable state. The blade is cleaned from rust and i think it's ready for a warangan treatment. This hobby is also addictive, could not resist to buy some Keris today and a nice rencong in need of some tlc.
