These are more close ups on the sogokan and the sor-soran of this ligan (keris pedang)...

I hope, it is a keris ligan. Length: 49 cm. An interesting connexion of blade and ganja.

Is there a change from dull to sharp a little more than halfway to the point on the greneng side of the blade, Gustav ?

If not, then you have an interesting Bali/Lombok keris form .

Rick,
there isn't such change, the blade is otherwise a current keris blade.

Gustav, I have never seen a ganja fitted as yours is .
(of course that doesn't mean much )

Anyone else seen this feature before in a Bali/Lombok keris ?

Also, it's beautiful .

An interesting thing about the ganja is that it echos the crossguard form of a Javanese pedang .

Rick, to me the sor-soran part more looks like a "regol" dhapur of keris. A regol has two gandhiks, and no wadidang... (in "putihan" condition, this ligan's iron looks like 'wesi malela'...)
