Yang paling ku suka, semangat cinta untuk membuatnya. Dari besi, menjadi karya indah. Pasti semua orang tau itu bukan keris. Tapi, kamu punya semangat itu. Bukankah semua orang pasti belajar? U have my respect sir.
I just discovered this young men's channel, and I must say that, what an amazing channel it is. In so much that, it is so well done, from the production values to the editing to sound. Now with regards to "Keris" that he just forged, all I can say is that it is a beautiful piece of work, regardless of whether it was done perfectly. Last, I admire this young man heart, in that he made this blade without his ego or pride getting in the way, he attempted to look within his self and thus forming a partnership/ harmony with his craft, that to me was worth the price of admission so speak. Well done young sir, carry on. Looking forward to more greatness from you in the future.
Omg searching for this so long, the absolutely best dagger in the world. A masterpiece of art. Good job! Im still searching for a new one to buy. Since years its my favourite "knife". So glad to see other people bringing them back.

@@myproject4982 itukan udah tradisi,, knp mesti takut skarang klo mau buat sendiri pun bisa pesen ke pandai besi yg memang sanggup membuat keris tanpa harus pake ritual2an
Selama ini kita sudah salah kaprah dalam memaknai sebuah keris yg jelas itu warisan leluhur yg orang lain justru iri ingin memiliki, lah kita malah dg bodohnya tanpa mencari tau kebenaran filosofinya apa itu keris malah menjauh bahkan cenderung ingin memusnahkan... Siapa yg salah ? Apapun bisa jika di kaitkan dg kesyirikan itu tergantung niat bukan benda...
Bukan gak dihargai cuy, tapi jeris sendiri untuk apa jika dikoleksi untuk masyarakat biasa keris di negara kita itu dihargai seperti karya seni dan harganya sangat mahal!! Jarang sekali ada seseorang yang dapat membeli keris jika dia bukan yang punya uang, jadi jang menjudge orang tidak menghargai, keris sendiri juga dihargai dengan caranya sendiri di indonesia oleh para kolektor dan harganya sangat mahal empunya juga berkehidupan yang layak dengan membuat karya sebuah keris... Di dunia modern juga adanya keris untuk apa dirumah2, kalau bukan untuk pajangan dan lagi harganya mahal lebih baik beli makanan dari pada beli untuk pajangan...
Satu karya yang patut diapresiasi dr seorang Floris, sesuai dengan keahlian dan pengetahuannya, kedepan semoga Floris ada kesempatan utk belajar langsung dari empu keris di Indonesia agar bertambah lagi ilmunya sehingga bisa membedakan teknik pembuatan keris Indonesia dengan teknik pembuatan pedang damaskus.....semangat dan lanjut terus....👍👍👍
Bukan nya tehnik, pembuat Damaskus, hampir mirip sama Indonesia, bahkan floris' pamor nya lebih keren, dan ngebuat nya juga ngikutin instruksi sesuai budaya Indonesia, lihat lapisan baja nya, bahkan sampe di tumpuk tumpuk pula, di potong lalu di tumpuk lgi.

Mr. Floris Postmes, I've finished watching Damascus knife-making. I've just want to click another Damascus knife-making video when I saw your very interesting tittle. One Young Dutch mastering an ancient keris making techniques? What a amazing! You are a young Dutch but mastering the technique of making heirloom keris which is a legacy from our ancestors. It's really a hard thing to be able making one keris masterpiece like in this film and only a few of us have that ability. I don't know how much time you have spent studying it. It takes years to master the technique and it can take months to build. As an Indonesian, I salute you for taking the time to learn, and dedicating yourself researching knowledge of the heritage of Indonesia's ancient cultures. I'm also shy to you. You have had what I should've had. With your work, the ancient culture of our heritage will be lifted and globalized. Thank you very much for everything. Wish you success in everything. May Allah give you His guidance. Aameen.

I like how you describe having a friendship with the materials you use and the end result, like any artist you observe and listen to the material, take it as far as you can and the end results are spectacular. Love the peaceful atmosphere of your video's, very soothing and relaxing to watch but when you revealed that etched pattern I got very excited, to me it looks like a waterfall. Great work as always Floris, thanks for sharing this with all of us!
If I'm not mistaken, I think there is still missing part on that keris, the little part of iron between the handle and the blade called "Gonjo", And the layer of this Gonjo is the same amount with the layer of the blade
I'm from Indonesia. I really appreciate what you are doing with our culture. Indonesian culture with a keris weapon full of philosophy depicted in the keris image pattern
bahkan orang luar pun kagum sm budaya kita dan tahu filosofi yg terkandung didalamnya secara dia lebih baik tau moral dan menjunjung tinggi budaya bukan malah mengkafir-kafirkan. great work bro respect from east java🇲🇨
Hello Floris, It's really nice to watch you finished your keris... although there a few major mistake but your art is really awesome. Firstly bro, the keris handle should not in the same direction or horizontal with the blade, the actual position should be vertical with the blade... Secondly, keris blade consist two separate parts, "bilah" and "ganja".... Last but not least, the metal material should not from the same metal, you will needed at least 7 type of metal such as iron, copper, alloys, bronze and etc... then combine them all together by forging. If you interested in making a few more types of keris, something like sundang or Malay keris... Please let me know... I will assist you with the design and few important information about keris...

It’s amazing how you forged this blade with very little need for a lot of stock removal because you took your time in the forging. You are an amazing craftsman. 👍🏾👏🏾🥰
The keris master (empu) used to forged that blade with their bare fingers. There is a metaphysics thing involved. The proof that they doing finger is on the blade of antique keris, there is a finger marks
yeahhh, my friend said this, they just pray and say something (*spell) and its shaped it self damn, our ancestor create sumthing more powerful than we think just because some people cant make it, doesnt mean its alien👀
My god, Floris... That's one hell of a craftsmanship. I especially love the pamor (patterns) on the blade. Also, your Keris would have a special place in Javanese culture. You see, a blade with 5 curves signifies that it was intended to be wielded by someone who commands great respect in society; namely, kings or those with royal blood. Those 5 curves signifies power and noble character... and with that craftsmanship, it is more than befitting for a nobleman to wear at the small of his back. Great job!
The pamor (damascus) of your keris is awesome. The pattern is incredible and beautiful. The energy of the keris is very good and positive. I think its because you really focus and pour your good will in the process. Although you do not put ganja in the kris but it's oke for me, because historically the ancient keris made before 10 Century also have no ganja either. So the pattern and luk (curve) is modern keris but the basic concept of the main blade itself look like early keris (ancient one). Great!!! 👍👍👍
im an indonesian, and its a such great work you put in it. you still a young man and im speechless, one thing that we believe to keris have soul its the effort of the keris maker itself and you did it very very well. i can tell your keris is special. well done good job
In Indonesia, theres Keris that passed between generations.. And sometimes the Keris contains some kind of demon or spiritual energy inside. Especially the ones that are made by certain Empu
Thank you for wanting to appreciate the work of Indonesia, especially this keris. I am very happy to see the Javanese culture weapon (Indonesian) made by outsiders, keep on working with friends 🙏🙏 -I'm from Indonesia😊
The more the curvature, the more the noble or the sacredness of the keris. Take note on that. In all, you did good on honoring the process, the philosophy of the process, etc. Good job.
I don't know where you get that wrong info, but the sacredness/nobleness of a keris does not have anything to do with the curvature (Javanese: luk). Each shapes of keris (luk, lurus, bethok) have their own characteristics and their nobleness depends on how they are used. As a matter of fact, luk keris tend to be used for killing/combat, while bethok keris was very popular among the Brahmans during ancient times since it's was designed as ritual weapon. Whoever tells you that the sacredness of a keris depends on the luk can't be more wrong than that
@@yunanklaus1195 If you're looking for someone to blame, just blame the tour guide of Museum of Keris in Solo. Btw, he is a scholar of Javanese tradition. The real and appointed scholar by the local authority and the government. Anyway, thanks for the lesson.
in ancient times, our ancestors(javanese) made a Keris using materials from meteor.. or they used to call it a *Batu Bintang* Wich means star stone _greeting from Indonesia 🙏🏼
Hi I am from Indonesia, I am originally from Java. In Java, making a keris with a standard must pass several requirements to complete the keris, by fasting and preparing offerings,So that the keris has magical power. After passing these few conditions, the forger will begin to forge iron which is given several mixtures, if in the days of the kris kingdom it was given chunks Meteorite. But now it uses nickel and other "materials. The keris blade protector called" warangka "is made of wood and wrapped in iron. The types of pamor are also many and good. In my opinion, keris has advantages in making pamor, warangka and its use . And all those manuals don't use any machines, the forge must also be from the descendants of the forger, that's an optional condition..salam rahayu salam budaya
Beautiful keris. The texture on it, the blade curves and the hilt are perfect. Added with the incenses surrounding it, you really know that keris are very much bath into mysticism by some owners of them in the past and even until now. It is very interesting that a 18yo done a marvellous job in crafting real steel blades from own hand. At that age, your peers are more concern of making stupid meme tiktok videos. But you are different. Keep doing this. Hopefully you will be a well known blade craftsman and earn a comfortable living out of it. Such skillful youngsters who are skill with their hands are very hard to come by in 2022 and beyond.
it's really good kaka to be filled with souls in his keris, fasting on friday for three weeks don't eat or drink on the last day when fasting 24 hours a day
Wow.. that's an amazing art! You"ve made a beautiful Keris , love that wave and marble texture on it. I thought it would be imposible to see a young man like you smithing, now I see one and it's wonderfull! A work of art 👍👍👍😍😍😍😍
❤I really appreciate your workmanship in making a keris. In terms of prestige, it is very beautiful. Study harder or ask an expert to be able to create a natural keris. A keris is not just a weapon, but an image for the heirloom holder (pamong). There are several parts of the keris shape that are different. gives meaning to the moral message of life. But I really like your art. Greetings from Java.🎉🎉
and one more thing, the lekuk (luk) must be an odd number, not an even count. more details. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and the highest is 13. luk 1 owner is aiming to know more about his god. luk 3 is obsessed with the goal of his world .luk 5 owner of the soul of a leader.luk 7 a ruler of suggestions in many matters.luk 9 someone who is respected/authoritative.luk 11 makes things easier.and puk 13 peace of life (the average owner is old, or doesn't think about worldly materials).
additionally... a keris must have several characteristics in its shape that embody the life philosophy of the holder or maker. So the weapon can then be called a keris. Thank you to those of you who have made something like this. Greetings from Indonesia, Java. RAHAYU..🙏
In the past, the person who made Kerriss was called EMPU. An EMPU is usually only able to make a few kerriiss in his life, that's because they folded and hit the keris material for decades with high dedication to create a keris that has a very extraordinary quality.
For everyone that seeing this awesome video. I just want to clarify that all the people that connect keris with magic are not true, at least, i have met some collector that have more than a thousands keris in his armory. There is none that have magic power. People that says keris is connected by a magic are someone who discredited this magnificent works. The keris are never ment to imbued by a magic or anything. Its just the symbol of power, male, royal, etc. Keris is highly regarded because the maker are imbued it with an utmost dedication. And Java man use it more as a symbol rather than weapon. In kingdom era, we use sword, spear and a lot more, but never a keris. Unless there is nothing more in your disposal, maybe we will use keris to kill our opponent. But, a lot of finding, in ancient battlefield, keris especially, are still on the warangka. So that proof that even a soldier will die first before unsheat their keris. That is proof that we javanese people never consider keris as a weapon. We consider it as our symbol and status.
Terimkasih sudah menghargai leluhur kami ikut andil menciptakan karya yg bukan mudah diciptakan, terimakasih sudah mau menjadi saudara, karya yg luar biasa.
FYI : Some of Keris blacksmiths called "empu" in Indonesian they usually done it in a weeks or more while fasting called "putihan" it means they just eat only white rice and drink only water *sorry for my english😁
Salam hangat dari INDONESIA Dan terima kasih sudah menghargai dan melestarikan karya dan budaya leluhur kami lewat Keris Sekali lagi terima kasih saudaraku
I as one of the Keris user that still left in Southeast Asia feel that yours are great from the side of art.It is so beautiful but still lack in the mystical element of Keris forging process,the process start from the material selection,after that,the smith are fasting for 44 days and only can eat pop rice and drink plain water during the forging process.It's usually called 'puasa memutih' in our tradition.The purpose of that tradition is to clean ourself in physical or mental state during the forging process.The amount of the Keris curve also symbolize something depends on the Smith,the carving and shape of the hilt of Keris usually symbolize the name of the Keris. The old Keris sharpening process also did not using any tools.it is using Lime or acid citric to clean up the Keris from the rust and the blade will be sharp once again.This is the purpose of the elders to bathing Keris in Lime juice during the ancient times
The real keris wasn't made to be a weapon. Indonesian has some more effective weapon for war. the real function of keris just like a pokeball. Javanese know what iam talking about..
I have heard the story that a long time ago in making a keris. The master had to fasting, looking for a good day to start, and the unique thing was that the master did not use fire to burn and did not also use a hammer to forge iron, but only using the fingers (massaging) iron to create a fantastic kris. This is truly magical.
Naaah...This one is a fairy tale.Unless Empu Keris back then was an allien.Even Empu Gandring forging his Keris.There is a story about that is written.
Im from Malaysia,that's a beautiful piece you got there Mister also like to see the afford building it,.as u know keris is a art also a ancient weapon and some of it clam has a mistical power for whom holding or own it ,it is made for single hand combat and one of a deadliest weapon for close combat ever made besides the karambit,even I have one in my home,it belongs to my great grandfather and been past to me,.I was told it was a 113 years keris and the previous owner of it name demak, rumor said that my great grandfather defeat demak on our ancient fighting art call silat,.after his defeated demak gave her keris to my grandfather as a gift,. it's has been in my possession ever since,.

Keris versi barat
Yg ini "lumayan" lah cara bikinny hampir mendekati.di chanel lain ad yg bikin keris cuma dari bilah besi yg dibentuk mirip keris (luk).
I just discovered this young men's channel, and I must say that, what an amazing channel it is. In so much that, it is so well done, from the production values to the editing to sound. Now with regards to "Keris" that he just forged, all I can say is that it is a beautiful piece of work, regardless of whether it was done perfectly. Last, I admire this young man heart, in that he made this blade without his ego or pride getting in the way, he attempted to look within his self and thus forming a partnership/ harmony with his craft, that to me was worth the price of admission so speak. Well done young sir, carry on. Looking forward to more greatness from you in the future.
Yeah that soul, its good connection. i hope he will always put that soul of his creation. Such a positive energy of harmony for a "maker"
Omg searching for this so long, the absolutely best dagger in the world. A masterpiece of art. Good job! Im still searching for a new one to buy. Since years its my favourite "knife". So glad to see other people bringing them back.
Beautifully hand made. Adding your signature on the keris. A work of oustanding workmanship.
Never dissapointed, beautiful. Really appreciate the new format and the sensible you again.
Jika di negri asalnya budaya leluhur tak terlalu dihargai oleh anak cucunya, biarlah menjadi warisan berharga untuk belahan dunia lainnya. Terima kasih telah melestarikan budaya leluhur kami. respect for you, EMPU!
Bukan g dihargai sih, klau gua liat keris indo tuh mals nya karena dikaitkan sama mistis mulu jadi org mungkin juga takut gitu
@@myproject4982 itukan udah tradisi,, knp mesti takut skarang klo mau buat sendiri pun bisa pesen ke pandai besi yg memang sanggup membuat keris tanpa harus pake ritual2an
Selama ini kita sudah salah kaprah dalam memaknai sebuah keris yg jelas itu warisan leluhur yg orang lain justru iri ingin memiliki, lah kita malah dg bodohnya tanpa mencari tau kebenaran filosofinya apa itu keris malah menjauh bahkan cenderung ingin memusnahkan... Siapa yg salah ?
Apapun bisa jika di kaitkan dg kesyirikan itu tergantung niat bukan benda...
Bukan gak dihargai cuy, tapi jeris sendiri untuk apa jika dikoleksi untuk masyarakat biasa keris di negara kita itu dihargai seperti karya seni dan harganya sangat mahal!!
Jarang sekali ada seseorang yang dapat membeli keris jika dia bukan yang punya uang, jadi jang menjudge orang tidak menghargai, keris sendiri juga dihargai dengan caranya sendiri di indonesia oleh para kolektor dan harganya sangat mahal empunya juga berkehidupan yang layak dengan membuat karya sebuah keris...
Di dunia modern juga adanya keris untuk apa dirumah2, kalau bukan untuk pajangan dan lagi harganya mahal lebih baik beli makanan dari pada beli untuk pajangan...
coba mampir ke kediri mas, kata siapa tidak dihargai?
Satu karya yang patut diapresiasi dr seorang Floris, sesuai dengan keahlian dan pengetahuannya, kedepan semoga Floris ada kesempatan utk belajar langsung dari empu keris di Indonesia agar bertambah lagi ilmunya sehingga bisa membedakan teknik pembuatan keris Indonesia dengan teknik pembuatan pedang damaskus.....semangat dan lanjut terus....👍👍👍
Bukan nya tehnik, pembuat Damaskus, hampir mirip sama Indonesia, bahkan floris' pamor nya lebih keren, dan ngebuat nya juga ngikutin instruksi sesuai budaya Indonesia, lihat lapisan baja nya, bahkan sampe di tumpuk tumpuk pula, di potong lalu di tumpuk lgi.

Mr. Floris Postmes, I've finished watching Damascus knife-making. I've just want to click another Damascus knife-making video when I saw your very interesting tittle. One Young Dutch mastering an ancient keris making techniques? What a amazing! You are a young Dutch but mastering the technique of making heirloom keris which is a legacy from our ancestors. It's really a hard thing to be able making one keris masterpiece like in this film and only a few of us have that ability. I don't know how much time you have spent studying it. It takes years to master the technique and it can take months to build. As an Indonesian, I salute you for taking the time to learn, and dedicating yourself researching knowledge of the heritage of Indonesia's ancient cultures. I'm also shy to you. You have had what I should've had. With your work, the ancient culture of our heritage will be lifted and globalized. Thank you very much for everything. Wish you success in everything. May Allah give you His guidance. Aameen.

I like how you describe having a friendship with the materials you use and the end result, like any artist you observe and listen to the material, take it as far as you can and the end results are spectacular. Love the peaceful atmosphere of your video's, very soothing and relaxing to watch but when you revealed that etched pattern I got very excited, to me it looks like a waterfall.
Great work as always Floris, thanks for sharing this with all of us!
If I'm not mistaken, I think there is still missing part on that keris, the little part of iron between the handle and the blade called "Gonjo", And the layer of this Gonjo is the same amount with the layer of the blade
Early Lighting like a stopper?
This is empu gandreng😂
Magnifico trabajo!!!,toda una obra de arte!!,y lo más abmirable de que eres muy joven y talentoso!...

Hello Floris,
It's really nice to watch you finished your keris... although there a few major mistake but your art is really awesome.
Firstly bro, the keris handle should not in the same direction or horizontal with the blade, the actual position should be vertical with the blade...
Secondly, keris blade consist two separate parts, "bilah" and "ganja"....
Last but not least, the metal material should not from the same metal, you will needed at least 7 type of metal such as iron, copper, alloys, bronze and etc... then combine them all together by forging.
If you interested in making a few more types of keris, something like sundang or Malay keris... Please let me know... I will assist you with the design and few important information about keris...

It’s amazing how you forged this blade with very little need for a lot of stock removal because you took your time in the forging. You are an amazing craftsman. 👍🏾👏🏾🥰
The keris master (empu) used to forged that blade with their bare fingers. There is a metaphysics thing involved. The proof that they doing finger is on the blade of antique keris, there is a finger marks
yeahhh, my friend said this, they just pray and say something (*spell) and its shaped it self
damn, our ancestor create sumthing more powerful than we think
just because some people cant make it, doesnt mean its alien👀
Wow
I think the words you're looking for are "never be satisfied with your art. because when you become satisfied, you'll stop creating."
My god, Floris... That's one hell of a craftsmanship. I especially love the pamor (patterns) on the blade. Also, your Keris would have a special place in Javanese culture. You see, a blade with 5 curves signifies that it was intended to be wielded by someone who commands great respect in society; namely, kings or those with royal blood. Those 5 curves signifies power and noble character... and with that craftsmanship, it is more than befitting for a nobleman to wear at the small of his back. Great job!
You can go to my channel to see blade, sword, and knife
The pamor (damascus) of your keris is awesome. The pattern is incredible and beautiful. The energy of the keris is very good and positive. I think its because you really focus and pour your good will in the process. Although you do not put ganja in the kris but it's oke for me, because historically the ancient keris made before 10 Century also have no ganja either. So the pattern and luk (curve) is modern keris but the basic concept of the main blade itself look like early keris (ancient one). Great!!! 👍👍👍
im an indonesian, and its a such great work you put in it. you still a young man and im speechless, one thing that we believe to keris have soul its the effort of the keris maker itself and you did it very very well. i can tell your keris is special. well done good job
thank u very much, i really proud your work, you build traditional weapon from my country, and thank u bro , good chanel 🙏👌

Hebat!!! in Indonesia, people who make keris are usually called "MPU" in their first name... can i call you "Mpu floris" 😁😁😁
Bockachoda 😁
The more the curvature, the more the noble or the sacredness of the keris. Take note on that.
In all, you did good on honoring the process, the philosophy of the process, etc. Good job.
I don't know where you get that wrong info, but the sacredness/nobleness of a keris does not have anything to do with the curvature (Javanese: luk). Each shapes of keris (luk, lurus, bethok) have their own characteristics and their nobleness depends on how they are used. As a matter of fact, luk keris tend to be used for killing/combat, while bethok keris was very popular among the Brahmans during ancient times since it's was designed as ritual weapon. Whoever tells you that the sacredness of a keris depends on the luk can't be more wrong than that
@@yunanklaus1195 If you're looking for someone to blame, just blame the tour guide of Museum of Keris in Solo. Btw, he is a scholar of Javanese tradition. The real and appointed scholar by the local authority and the government. Anyway, thanks for the lesson.

Great Pamor, Pamor is a pattern that shows the character of Keris.
in ancient times, our ancestors(javanese) made a Keris using materials from meteor.. or they used to call it a *Batu Bintang* Wich means star stone
_greeting from Indonesia 🙏🏼
Hi I am from Indonesia, I am originally from Java. In Java, making a keris with a standard must pass several requirements to complete the keris, by fasting and preparing offerings,So that the keris has magical power. After passing these few conditions, the forger will begin to forge iron which is given several mixtures, if in the days of the kris kingdom it was given chunks Meteorite. But now it uses nickel and other "materials. The keris blade protector called" warangka "is made of wood and wrapped in iron. The types of pamor are also many and good. In my opinion, keris has advantages in making pamor, warangka and its use . And all those manuals don't use any machines, the forge must also be from the descendants of the forger, that's an optional condition..salam rahayu salam budaya
next step: add some dark magic so it can spark when it touches another keris
Lol 😅😅
Yeaah its true

Beautiful keris. The texture on it, the blade curves and the hilt are perfect. Added with the incenses surrounding it, you really know that keris are very much bath into mysticism by some owners of them in the past and even until now. It is very interesting that a 18yo done a marvellous job in crafting real steel blades from own hand. At that age, your peers are more concern of making stupid meme tiktok videos. But you are different. Keep doing this. Hopefully you will be a well known blade craftsman and earn a comfortable living out of it. Such skillful youngsters who are skill with their hands are very hard to come by in 2022 and beyond.

it's really good kaka to be filled with souls in his keris, fasting on friday for three weeks don't eat or drink on the last day when fasting 24 hours a day
Well done mate; really loved the blade in the first place, but also the atmosphere and the video editing. Keep up the good work 👍👍

Imagine...when empu(keris maker) just using hammer to make thousands layer to making pamor
❤I really appreciate your workmanship in making a keris. In terms of prestige, it is very beautiful. Study harder or ask an expert to be able to create a natural keris. A keris is not just a weapon, but an image for the heirloom holder (pamong). There are several parts of the keris shape that are different. gives meaning to the moral message of life. But I really like your art. Greetings from Java.🎉🎉
and one more thing, the lekuk (luk) must be an odd number, not an even count. more details. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and the highest is 13. luk 1 owner is aiming to know more about his god. luk 3 is obsessed with the goal of his world .luk 5 owner of the soul of a leader.luk 7 a ruler of suggestions in many matters.luk 9 someone who is respected/authoritative.luk 11 makes things easier.and puk 13 peace of life (the average owner is old, or doesn't think about worldly materials).
additionally... a keris must have several characteristics in its shape that embody the life philosophy of the holder or maker. So the weapon can then be called a keris. Thank you to those of you who have made something like this. Greetings from Indonesia, Java. RAHAYU..🙏
In the past, the person who made Kerriss was called EMPU. An EMPU is usually only able to make a few kerriiss in his life, that's because they folded and hit the keris material for decades with high dedication to create a keris that has a very extraordinary quality.
This was a pleasure to watch this, and the mucis is wonderful!! Wow

For everyone that seeing this awesome video. I just want to clarify that all the people that connect keris with magic are not true, at least, i have met some collector that have more than a thousands keris in his armory.
There is none that have magic power. People that says keris is connected by a magic are someone who discredited this magnificent works. The keris are never ment to imbued by a magic or anything. Its just the symbol of power, male, royal, etc. Keris is highly regarded because the maker are imbued it with an utmost dedication. And Java man use it more as a symbol rather than weapon. In kingdom era, we use sword, spear and a lot more, but never a keris. Unless there is nothing more in your disposal, maybe we will use keris to kill our opponent. But, a lot of finding, in ancient battlefield, keris especially, are still on the warangka. So that proof that even a soldier will die first before unsheat their keris. That is proof that we javanese people never consider keris as a weapon. We consider it as our symbol and status.
You like "EMPU" He is High Spiritual Level
But this more modern
And better
And stronger

True artwork. The vector in the steel, thought from the inception, just brilliant.
I as one of the Keris user that still left in Southeast Asia feel that yours are great from the side of art.It is so beautiful but still lack in the mystical element of Keris forging process,the process start from the material selection,after that,the smith are fasting for 44 days and only can eat pop rice and drink plain water during the forging process.It's usually called 'puasa memutih' in our tradition.The purpose of that tradition is to clean ourself in physical or mental state during the forging process.The amount of the Keris curve also symbolize something depends on the Smith,the carving and shape of the hilt of Keris usually symbolize the name of the Keris. The old Keris sharpening process also did not using any tools.it is using Lime or acid citric to clean up the Keris from the rust and the blade will be sharp once again.This is the purpose of the elders to bathing Keris in Lime juice during the ancient times
aliff rasid I bath in donkey shit before I forge anything.
Yeah..no one sanding a keris before..usually using lime to keep the poisonous effect intact.
