- Introduction to the Keris (Malay Dagger)
Codex from The Brunei Maritime Museum describing Sultan Bolkiah’s Escorting War Ships. He reigned from 1485 to 1524.
“... the whole of the vessel was covered by a strong, flat roof where the fighters stood... Principal weapons
were the Keris, a traditional malay dagger and spear, both of which, to be used with full effect, require elbow room. The vessel was also equipped with three cannons at the bow and another two at the sides.”

Thanks for always adding the cultural and historical background to your art and the weapons. Today with MMA people don't learn these things
Yeah true cuz mma fanboys don't like traditional martial arts and they belive is ineffective in the ring.
OH SNAP!~ In Malaysia and Singapore, I've been to plenty of museums with dedicated areas about Bruneian/Indonesian/Malay archipelago cultures' weaponry, but NEVER heard anything along this thread. I'm honoured to hear it, and as a marathon binge-watcher of this excellent channel, i'll say that you are a credit to your Nation, and your Art.
Teruja dapat melihat budaya keris dikongsi kepada masyarakat Antarabangsa. Terima kasih dan Salam dari Malaysia.
Glad to see you posting again! As much as I enjoy you're martial teachings - as an anthropologist I find the history, culture, and context of the system even more fascinating. Thank you for keeping history alive and sharing it with those who are interested in learning.
Beautiful, thank you for the historical information and the beautiful display of how keris is used in silat.
I've been curious for a long time regarding the usage of keris in silat, but so far I've only seen choreographed demonstrations with lots of jumping and acrobatic maneuvers - this is my first time seeing a clear and practical demonstration!
Terima kasih 🙏🏼
Ikr his technical explanations are on point lovely to see great teacher.
The Keris have been well known for decade and have amassed a pretty sizable international following.
But I believe this is the first time the international audience actually find out how its actually used.
I actually find it interesting most didnt realize the sheath is a weapon. The shape is so obvious ;) but apparently not lol
Kereen bahas keris, Salam dari indonesia Guru Maul🙏
Thank fo sharing, this is the first time I see how use of sarung keris..
What a devastating weapon!! I love how he explains the cultural/historical aspects of the weapon. Unlike the Kukri, the Keris seems to have no other application than killing.
Yeah, cheap poison you can apply to small bladed weapons like those basically just stick it to dead rat and let it rot for a few days. If you can withstand the smell tho.
more like slow torturing rot to death kind of killing
Kukri is more of a multipurpose blade for daily use which can be used as a weapon of self defense. So, I think it's fairer to compare that to golok or parang instead of keris.
It's carried around by panglimas and hulubalangs meaning warriors and military leaders n not really carried around by normal ppl in the olden days. Unless they are real warriors. But that doesn't mean the general populace are unarmed, the normal ppl carry around parangs and goloks (machetes). Yes it's purpose is solely to kill, not for utility. Even the way it's gripped is catered around how a silat practitioner can just slot the keris in n it becomes an extension of himself to be more efficient at killing. This weapon is one of the most feared alongst the stealthy kerambit bcos bearers are usually highly trained at killing
wow. this is the first time I learn the secrets of the keris. probably, the first time the world found out about it. So many tactical and secret war battle techniques.
Amazing I had know idea all the thought went into keris blades.
All the years of learning an it is great to find i don't know nothing.
Great video
The body mechanics and thought put into all of the curves and particular shapes of the keris really highlight the knowledge of no nonsense brutal fighting when needed
like holstering a modded out glock with all the edges blended to perfection
🇲🇾❤️🇧🇳 the Malays warrior of silat & keris
LOL
Sometimes he will show brunei keris.If i know lol
@@StikChat what different keris Brunei than Malaysia? Brunei also part siblings from Malay people...you dont know history
Thank you! So informative in a short video. Thank you for sharing your tradition!
Thank you. I have always wondered about applications of the sheath.
Thank you so much for sharing this
Thank you for sharing ! God bless you!
Bnyk helah yg ada pd diri pendekar ini. Org yg jujur yg tdk merhsiakn pengetahuannya. Bagussekali n beruntung mrk yg mnjd anak muridnya.
Lot of tricks this master have. Sincerely not to keep secret his knowledge. It's really good n benefit to his students.
Always great learning and congrats on your new addition...God bless your family!
Thank you brother 🙏
Beautifully explained and demonstrated, Sir! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Salam from Singapore! 🇧🇳🤝🏻🇸🇬
Keris is a complete weapon for short range.
Absolutely incredible!
I love how silat practitioners think about attack, defense, and joint manipulation
Terima kasih atas perkongsian. Memang perlu kita belajar balik ilmu² begini agar tidak pupus ditelan zaman
Awesome! Didn't realize how versatile it was
Love this. More history please. I have studied this a lot, but nothing had history or context.
Have you know the philosophy of keris ?
I am shocked speechless in awe. That sheathe is AMAZING! That unprepped demonstrator was most kind.
I love these demos.
So basically it's a mechanical+non-main unarmed opportunists sidearm weapon setup not a real warfare weapon circumvents combat and more like a ninja/assassins non-combat evasive handling weapon. But you would have had to turn more aggressive as a result of the short range to cut off attacks. One heavy bladebreak would leave you defenceless+multiple attackers would be difficult. Poison is efficient for cheap indefensible things, well-armoured opponents is where the spear comes in i guess? I would love to see those too. I read stiletto daggers were useful vs. chainmail types to pierce links. These ones would not pierce constructs so well I'm guessing, but very biologically smart.
I never ever knew the function for that hook grip thank you so much. Love ❤
As a Javanese I learn so much, thank you Mas 🤗
Terbaik penjelasan tuan..
Huh. I've always wondered why my dad's keris isn't a homogeneous springsteel. It looks like it has alternating bands of black and white that resemble a boxcutter's segmented blade.
Never knew a keris blade could be broken off inside an enemy.
True, yes. Not all keris though there are variations. But the most well-made and the most devious have very "flimsy" edges, more like miniature spikes along the blade that are meant to break off.
Theres a reason why the Keris is the penultimate Warrior weapon in the Nusantara region. It is almost over-engineered.
Salam serumpun bang dari jawa tengah🙏
Thanks for sharing
Penerangan yg amat baik. Keep it up, Cikgu Maul.
Bijak kamu ini ya wahai pendekar 👍
@@dragonniz terima kasih maha guru bertam.
Awesome.
Very interesting weapon design!
Could u do a video on how the olden days made silat? Like the how certain throws came about when they needed to throw them off the bridge and such?
He literally did already?
Edged weapons is a whole other world and level. Wow ! 😳
Mantap tuan guru. Terima kasih atas tunjuk ajar. For those unfamiliar the keris should not be taken out of the sheath unnecessarily.
Mantap laa tuan guru
Waw keren sekali, salam dari indonesia 🙏🙏
Good training
Awesome
Eventhough brunei and sarawak..are neighbour country..but its hard to find people making kris or selling it..especially in kuching.
Kebanyakan masih banyak dekat kalimantan saya ada twngok jugak keris dayak yang dimodifikasi dorang mungkin ambik dari seni keris melayu kalau tak salah tapi ada je tuan kalau cari
Good job 👍
🙏
🙏❤️
Keris: Un excelente arma milenaria de alta efectividad en el actual milenio
Sir , Thankyou !
“ why is the Keris‘Malay dagger such a superior shape ? Thankyou
Justin
@Maul565 Would you at some time in the future do a video on how to use Silat against typical MMA / wrestling/grappling style?
I think he already does most of it is logical+practical speed striking+grappling when you go into pure grappling or striking you probably outspecialise.
MMA is a sports with rules. Silat is a form of martial art with killing mechanics. If you bring a karambit or sai or kriss to fight MMA guy, he will be complaining about fairness. If I were a silat practitioner against grappler in the street, I will straight up cut his neck's vein with karambit once he comes close to me. I hope you get the picture.
AFAIK Silat had its own tecnic against tackle since silat has it aswell (tackel).
Note: silat always has it hands close to ribs at least 1 on them
So when you being tackle...get an underhook at one of his arm while u stepping back to outside. Then push him to the side or you can get an one hand kimura (u know kimura ?)
Im so sorry for my terrible spelling, im still learning
So many martial practices have lost their cultural context and thereby losing any real meaning, how much it pleases my soul to know that you still have this living within you . Much of the industrialized world have no culture at all.
Salaam 1 kuntau dri sarawak bang👍😄✌️
Wow..i never knew keris can be used that way. Mr Maul, do you learn about the magic element of keris too?
👍👍👍
Lot of Knowledge ! I would have love to train with you. What's the name of your Silat ? I find it very efficient and "Straight to the Point". I Trained many years in Paris, "Setia Hati Terate" with Pendekar Charles Joussot (Lineage of Bapak Hadjorno Turpijn); and in London with Pendekar Steven Benitez ( "Silat Wali Songo" now "Satria Arts", and "Cimande"). Wa Slm.
Looking for the name, like your silat lineage's is from Indonesia
Bapak Turpijn was a great street fighter and one of the bapaks who brought the art from Indonesia to the Netherlands and Europe.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Salam dari Malaysia 😁😁🙏🙏
tuan, i really want to learn.
Wow
This particular Keris is quite different than the traditional Javanese ones arent they? Techniques and movement should be different aswell i reckon.
Design is totally different. Indonesian keris, most Indonesians will say its for ceremonial and symbolic purposes and not as a weapon, Brunei uses it as a weapon as written in historical manuscript.
@@Maul565 that's true, most of them use it for ceremonial purposes. Though ive seen People apply techniques to the Javanese one, it is quite rare to encounter.
@F R true....keris or Kris was one of the weapon not only on Java's culture but on Bali either. It's combined with pedang(sword) or tombak(spear).. as u see in Kali Majapahit martial art as the example the name of Majapahit are taken from Javanese ancient empire (i'm sorry my English so bad🙏🙏)
kawali/keris and badik... we use it as weapon... in celebes archipelago...
@@muchlasramli true ...pal
Wish If it was music-free May Allah bless you 💎
morgul blade?
So Maul I'm curious, are you saying there no way to disarm the Keris?
Thank you for the question 🙏.
Ofcourse it can be disarmed, every weapon can be disarmed, dependant on circumstances, timing, skill, etc, some weapons are designed so that its not easily disarmed.
Bang, iron body tu tak guna jin, pure inner power , right? Indonesia have inner power silat too,in merpati putih silat they able to see without eye(baca pun boleh)and breaking iron bar with 1 finger, almost similar dengan teknik iron body, what do you think bang?
Betul, tidak ada jin. Semua latihan fisikal yang betul 👍
Gila ke nak pakai jin? Syirik. Dosa yang tak diampuni Allah. It's all about practices, breathing technique and mental fortitude. Years of practice, I can now destroy a brick with a single punch.

Masih ada pembuat keris di Brunei?
Bnyak keris atu, bjual kh tu tuan? Dimana kg nya?
Hmmmm... master you showing all.the secret of keris laa
kalau dah tunjuk, itu bagi dia bukan rahsia.. ada lagi yg rahsia..
Not all
the title make me confuse
Thank you for sharing,
a question, is wooden Warangka strong enough to push the enemy body and parry enemy weapon?
matur suwun pak, rahayu🙏
Ikut pembuatan dan niat pemakaian semasa pembuatan Tuan. Terima kasih atas soalan 🙏
Ok i can't understand that but i imagine parrying by the flesh+joints is easier than parrying the weapon itself
@@something5190
Yep, and that kind of parry also double as an attack. It's defense and offence in one move.
Cuih
🔥EPIC🔥
Ooo baru tau... Sarung keris aku ingat untuk pertahanan jer, rupenye boleh pukul sekali.. 😂
Apa beda keris Brunei dengan keris Jawa? Saya lihat arah hulu nya beda ya?
Bentuk sampir, umbi(dhapur), hulu agak beza
This is secret in Malay world.. and you share it to the world..
If its a secret, who you told you its a secret, you shouldnt know as well. Because no one should know a secret.
Hello, the earth population in 2021 is around 7,874,965,825 or 7,9 billion. So this video needs more viewers to be called secret sharing.
Lol get rekt, boi
Maul is great !
Assalamualaikum bang Maul ...kalau baik kan tutup aurat nya ...Kita kan orang Islam Dan Pengamal Silat.
Maaf kalau tegur Abang
Waa'laikummussalam, kalau Tak silap sy, itu termasuk perkara khilaf dlm mazhab empat, ada mazhab yg mengira kepala lutut itu aurat dan ada mazhab yg kepala lutut masih bukan aurat ttp apa yg diatasnya aurat, wallahua'lam, pun bengitu memakai seluar pendek amatlah tidak beradab bagi budaya Melayu
@@megatawang469 barang kali melayu di malaysia terlalu sensitive, di Brunei memakai pakaian apa saja pun tidak menjadi hal besar asal mulut dan tingkah laku berjaga. Sebab itu di Brunei kita hidup aman dan harmoni dengan puak, bangsa dan agama lain, kerana tidak lancar mulut berkata sesama kita. Kita mendulukan akhlak sebelum rupa dan cara pemakaian.
@@Maul565 saudara yang komen tu tidak mewakili melayu Malaysia bang.. apa2 pun Abang Maul memang terbaik dalam megenalkan seni silat dan keris melayu. Teruskan bang, Salam dari Malaysia.🇧🇳🇲🇾❤️
Cara memperingatkan sudah bagus penerimaan salah. Terima Kasih kepada sahabat yang menegur semoga Allah merahmati dan mengasihi mu.
Why he speak english. Malay or not?
Because I am teaching foreigners about the malay culture. They dont speak malay. I dont need to teach malays about our culture.
Agak agak la boi😬
Agak2 la tanya soalan bodoh tu😂 dia sedang bercakap dgn pelancong asing
Dunia lebih mengenal keris Indonesia
Bukan keris Melayu 🙏🗿
Keris melayu untuk bertikam.. keris indo untuk kedukunan 😂
@@ikhwan83 tidak ada yang namanya keris Melayu
Yang ada itu keris Jawa Nusantara
Keris di Melayu itu awalnya dari seorang empu Jawa...
Belajar sejarah lagi dek
Sekolah dulu yang pintar
Friendly reminder, do not take old kriss just buy a new one
New ones only for decorations. Old ones made for war. But some entities may come with it 😬
@@faisprotv4935 i never expected to see knowledge+admission of entities so blatantly here or anywhere like this in my entire life 😨
New weapons don't care v industrial, otherwise I'd use A Nice Samurai Soulforged Sword For Virtues. Don't tangle with entities unless You Are Very Blessed+Capable.
I'd Rather Have A Blessed Decoration.
Keris ini asalnya dari Jawa
No
@Atma Jawa sih tamadun nusantara level mendunia sih. Nomor 1 di Asia Tenggara sama level Jepang, Italia & Somalia
@@irtidzar terus mendabik dada mas. Haha. Mantap.
Silat is very dangerous and deadly
Not sure how I feel about something that's supposed to break. Lol.
its a 'if' situation
Actually, just a splinter sized metal from the uneven surface of the kriss will stuck in the body, not the actual blade
He was referring to miniature flimsy "spikes" along the blade, its too small for the camera to pick up,
Those spikes are usually laced with poison and designed to break off, regardless if its slicing, stabbing or cutting, leaving the poisoned bits inside the wound.
🤭
Buy never a keris, keris not for playing it is the traditional from father to first son in the family
The majapahit legacy
No
If you made it of glass, I would understand, but steel? It would be a terrible waste of countless work hours...
It not meant to be efficient. And it can be considering a goods back than. Only pride fighter may have it. Not normal people. And it was from decade ago, glass techonolgy is not that high, steel can easily bends into curve like that. But glass is not.
@@yansaster4951 in Renaissance Europe glass daggers were used and they were intended to break off. Plus, they are sharper than any steel blade!
@@edi9892 i dont know are you joking or serious. Either i cant find glass dagger on google. Only glass knive and it need some micromachining. And avail in 1960s. I dont know are you understand properties of glass. And glass forming. But steel tech is already high even in medieval era.
I dont know in video games. Glass dagger i search only from frictional world. Addaptate from skyrim. And this type sword mainly is not for only break. It still need to use to swordfight, if it made from glass. It will easily lose even from log wood.
@@yansaster4951 glass is harder than steel, but too brittle to make any sword out of it. I bet the same would apply for diamond swords.
Glass in the form of obsidian has been used for ages as dagger- and arrowhead material. Hardened glass is even better.
The Malay Dagger, Lmao
Wong jowo jangan marah ya
Did you see the English, the French and Germans bickering over who made the European Longsword?
No?
Grow up. I'm Javanese btw.
@@muneirovalibas6194 Oh you're Javanese, what should i say then ? You got the main topic on this video dude ? I'm just Laugh on the sentence of "Malay Dagger". What next ? 'Christianity is European home made' religion ? Or 'Moslem is from Indonesia or Malaysia" ? You can't change the fact and history bruh... even you "write it wrong"
@@frankypramana
Nobody's changing anything, just you and your misplaced insecurities.
There weren't a "Malaysia" or an "Indonesia" which are all modern labels imposed by European colinialists, dude. Pick up a history book yourself.
BTW you realized this video is by a Bruneian, not even a Malaysian?
People's movements and migration are far more fluid in SE-Asia in the past, having worked and befriended many Malays over the years, I understood their perspectives of "Malay" is very different than how some indonesians may see it.
They view "Malay" as a more fluid and interchangeable term, more as a regional term that defines the entire Nusantara region rather than a strictly "tribal" categorization. From their understanding, that term is technically correct. Just as "European" accurately describes a German, French and English.
You also do realize there are millions of Javanese, Bugis, Boyanese and Minangkabaus in Malaysia, right? They all regard themselves as belonging in the "Malay" group, in Malaysia, thats actually codified in their legislation as Bumiputeras (sons of the land).
So do you really want to stay bickering over "origin this origin that" over a Bruneian guy who is actually doing something honorable and promoting interest over the beautiful Keris to an international audience?
Do you see how pointless it is now?
@@muneirovalibas6194 Nice opinion dude, you mean 'Malay' for 'Melayu' that's not a big deal, but you can buy a new history book for update ur guidance, Ramli Raman from Pengajian Melayu Accademy in 2008 make a statement "Keris totally in line with Melayu history, but Keris not originally made by Malay / Melayu, when Majapahit's era, someone who expert in Keris from Java, who introduce Keris to em" and for your Information, Javanese and Malay or Melayu kinda looks same but it's totally different.
Melayu or Malay, are represent of Sumatra's Area, now a day, everybody called Malay as Malaysian lokal people,
Btw i'm not even 'Insecure' with Keris, or Wayang or Anything that Malaysian can claim. That's why i'm not make any statement of it, just Laugh thats "Malay Dagger", btw Chinese people was using "Long Thin Sword" too maybe we can call it "Chinese Samurai" ? Who knows
Keris adalah senjata tradisional yang berasal dari Indonesia
Tidak ada yang bertanya.
@@Maul565: hahahaha...
Karena Indonesia begitu kaya dengan budaya, dan sudah banyak hak paten Indonesia yang diambil oleh orang asing...
Dan diakui miliknya sendiri...
Kasihan...
Saya hanya ingin juga memperkenalkan asal muasalnya silat, keris dan yang lainnya yang memang berasal dari Indonesia...
Agar sejarah yang sebenarnya tidak terdistorsi oleh orang orang yang hanya ingin pamor dengan sedikit keuntungan duniawi...
Hey, dude.. Suka atau tidak Indonesia adalah suatu negara yang menarik..
Sumber daya alam nya kaya, sumber daya manusia juga gak kalah walaupun saya akui, orang-orang yang punya quality tidak terlalu dihargai disini...mungkin gak perlu saya sebutkan orang orangnya...
Dan Indonesia punya culture yang juga kaya dan luar biasa...
LOL..
Siapa2 saja boleh claim.
Tetapi perkara yg tidak boleh dinafikan.. peleburan dan pembuatan besi yg tertua adalah di Kedah Tua..
Sebuat tempat yg telah wujud sebelum wujudnya kerajaan Majapahit lagi.
Keris sudah wujud sebelum negara indonesia,malaysia,brunei,thailand(selatan) dan filiphina wujud lg...kesemua negara itu ada keris dn juga silat....xusah mencari perbezaan sepatutnya kita mencari persamaan dan bangga dgn tradisi kita dan juga sebagai saudara serumpun...
Sudah wujud sebelum negara Indonesia ada, tapi wujudnya di kerajaan kerajaan dan daerah daerah yang sekarang telah menjadi indonesia...
LOL 😁. .
Negara lain mah tinggal claim doang..
Lagu kebangsaan pun nge claim punya orang...
Harusnya kita mah malu...
Hehehe...
Keris didn't work when japanese assassins, hired by the duch, buchered the entire Banda Sultanat family with their katanas.
Kita mesti fahamkan apa maksud “assassin” dan senjata “peperangan” dulu, sebelum memandang rendah budaya kita sendiri.
Assassin bunuh orang dari belakang dan senyap2, peperangan orang berlaga di medan perang.
Keris always belong to Java .
no, it belong to various tribes in SEA. Not only java.
keris jawa tidak bisa di pakai perang.. hanya sesuai untuk para dukun.. 🤣🤣🤣 tempat nyimpan setan
Keris jawa sesuai untuk potong tempe aja.
No, it's not. Keris jawa yes, it's belong to jawa. But other type of keris belong to their own origin place
