After this I was polishing the blade seven months long
 (with many breaks really), got sore and cracked fingertips, but the result was pretty rewarding, especially after the etching. The etching and the Wrongko were made on Bali (I would like to thank Mr. Michael Wahle from Bali-Artshop for his help). I would like to know more about this fascinating blade, so any comments are welcome. The blade is very massive – it is 1.8 cm thick near the Gonjo. |

Tatyana, the guidance I gave to you was no more than I have given to many other people, however, you appear to have understood and followed my instructions to the letter, because the result you have achieved is excellent.I doubt that I could do any better than this myself.
Congratulations. |

Beautiful! It's happy to see the keris returned to its dignified state!
Hopefully I have something to show about my own Bali keris in a couple of month's time.
