Restoration Old Rusty KRIS Dagger
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2023
- Hello folks! Today I have a unique thing, for the first time on the channel. Restoration of Chris Dagger. This blade is popular and common in Malaysia, the Philippines and Indonesia. I got it from France through my friend. I don't know how this dagger got to France. I know one thing that the seller said that this blade is from the 19th century. Well, let's start the restoration.
This is the first time I have held such a dagger in my hands. I tried to make the whole restoration process neat due to the fact that the item is rare and I am not familiar with it.
First of all, I took the dagger apart. I cleaned the blade and the brass part from the scabbard with a sandblaster. I immersed the beautiful wooden handle (by the way, without a single damage) in oil for one week.
I sanded and polished the brass part of the scabbard. I closed the hole that was at the end with cold welding, then sanded it with sandpaper and painted it with gold paint.
I sanded the wooden scabbard, plastered it with glue and wood dust. Then I covered the sheath with putty for wood and then painted the sheath. Then, using sandpaper, I leveled the layer and covered it with another layer of paint.
After light polishing, I etched the dagger with iron chloride so that the drawing (most likely Damascus) would become clearer and more pronounced.
I connected the hilt and the dagger with cold welding. Why? Because epoxy and resin, etc. could stain such an original beautiful handle.
As usual, I conducted an easy test and now I have a unique thing! Thank you for your attention!
Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!

The kerisses are a national weapon of Indonesia. Nowadays they have lost their function in combat, but they stay a sign of status, an element of ceremonial dress, as well as they are considered talismans. One believes that there are magical powers in the keris blade, specifically in the bright pattern (pamor) containing nickel, visible on a dark background of the blade.
The process of making a keris (in the old times kept in professional secrecy) consists in repeatedly forging pure iron with an alloy iron-nickel. The bar made of these two materials is folded in half and forged to its original length. Another important way is to twist the bar in a spiral. These treatments result in a planned pattern, consisting of rings, lines, geometric, and symbolic forms - considered to be symbolic. The final pattern is somewhat reminiscent of Damascus steel, on the surface of which bright lines are visible. In addition to the pamor pattern, the form of the blade is also prescribed, including certain spikes, ribs and depressions. Wavy blades require
an additional work: they must be unhardened stretch by stretch and every fragment must be formed in a shape of an arch. Wavy blades are far less frequent than straight ones, so they are more desired by collectors.
Beliefs in the magical powers of the keris derive from animism, nonetheless they persist in Indonesia in spite of the fact it is an Islamic country for half a thousand years. Although in the last century the popularity of side arms has greatly diminished and the keris-smith profession has almost disappeared, the Indonesian state, independent since 1945, protects the art of forging kerisses as a national cultural heritage.
The weapon shown here is an example of decorative keris from the island of Bali,
a Hindu enclave in Indonesia. On the blade is visible a popular pamor pattern type called beras wutah - “strewn rice” - here concentrated close to the main axis. Also
a figure of the snake/dragon is wrought, one of the most important Indonesia’s symbolic animals, associated with the cosmos and royalty.
all abut that dagger.
Thanks. I never knew about any of that.
Claim jgn tidak claimmm.. semua indogg punyaaa
Great thank you..
thanks!
If i am not mistaken, based on the scabbard, the Keris is from Central Java, around Solo/Surakarta
Прекрасный крис! Завидую. Спасибо что бережно отнеслись к реставрации. Однако вы совершили небольшую ошибку - не в ту сторону поставили рукоять. Изгиб рукоятки должен быть в противоположную сторону от длинной части "гарды", это сделано для защиты тыльной стороны ладони, либо перпендикулярно поскости клинка для особого хвата. Кусок ткани в рукояти был неспроста, клинок на рукоять обычно не клеили, а сажали на тканевую обмотку или конский волос. Клинок действитеьно изготовен по дамасской технологии. Дамасский узор на крисе называется "памор". Фруктовый запах скорее всего остался как поседствие традиции купать крис в смеси сока лайма и благовоний, оттуда же ржавчина и съеденый корозией хвостовик.
Привет! Большое спасибо за внимание и инофрмацию!
А разве клинок не должен вращаться на рукояти, или это не у всех?
Отличная работа ,за субтитры спасибо!!!
Спасибо!
А вот и экзотика подъехала! Чего не ожидал увидеть, так это крис. Браво, Александр!
Я сам не ожидал!))
Жаль, рукоять не в ту сторону поставлена
Привет.Ножны необычные. Реставрация бережная. Мне понравилась работа Алекс.
Крис нож редкость. За субтитры отдельный респект. Их так не хватало.
Спасибо за внимание. Да первый раз попался, кстати а субтитры давненько уже включены)
@@ScrewsAndTools в прошлом видео обратил внимание что они появились. Перед этим долго не было.
В любом случае спасибо и удачи.
Ой не , что вы. ОНи уже более полугода точно. Спасибо и вам@@user-ep3gl6im5c
Wow!!! 😮 you’re true rogue master
New video! Surprisingly, this has not happened yet. thank you!🎉
Nice restore, my friend! Truly enjoyed "Behind the Scenes." Beep! Beep! 👍
Красота 👍
Salam budaya keris yang sangat luar biasa
Супер!!!! Отличная Работа 😊
Such am amazing work 👍 i'm from Indonesia, that's beautifull keris dagger. If you smell kind of aromatic from the keris or the sheet, it may come from fragrance oil (cendana oil, gaharu oil, melati/jasmine oil, etc), cause we ussually use that kind of oil for maintenance the blade and the sheet. The sheet is Yogyakartan style called "gayaman", and the shape of the blade is called "sabuk inten". The damascus pattren is ussually forged from iron and iron meteorit, but for cheaper keris we can subtitute iron meteorit with nickel.
The pattern of damascus have their spesific name and philosophy, i think maybe your keris damascus patern is called "pedaringan kebak". The shape "sabuk inten" is also have spesific philosophy, i think that's for welfare. We ussually use old coconut water to derusting the blade, and lime water plus arsenic powder to etching the blade. I think it's more better if the handle isn't glued, but we can used the thread or cloth to fit the handle.
Last, thanks for caring our ancestor heirloom, may goodness be upon u always 🙏
Thanks from Indonesia.
Nicely described. These Kris are considered to have sacred or supernatural power and these days are part of ceremonial dress.

Hello and thank you so much for feedback!
Красавчик! Как обычно позитивный

Спасибо!
Gayaman from Java Indonesia..🙏🇮🇩
Many years ago I read abook about bladed weapons { I don,t rememeber the title} and I believe this to be a traditional dagger from Java called a Kris. They are proffessed to have magical properties, I'm no expert by any means. Truly a beautiful and unusual dagger. Beautiful restoration!
Yes, they are said to have magical properties, and hilariously that's the reason the blade is SO thin. Because for semi-religious reasons, to keep said properties, they were suppossed to be thoroughly cleaned from rust every year in a ritualized process that involved diping the blade in acid (vinegar, but still) and sanding it thoroughly, several times. Do this yearly, and you wind up with extremely _thin_ blades after a few decades...
Thank you!
Awesome always cool stuff always thanks 😎
I like your work very much! Good job
Thank you!
Love the bloopers!
Looks like it's out of a magicians cloak!
Thank you for interest!
I wouldn’t want to go up against someone with that sword/dagger there is something about this one that makes my blood run cold. But as always you did a great job it looks amazing. Love watching your videos roadrunner 😊😊😊👍👍👍♥️
Beautiful restoration mister Screws well done
Thank you for your attention and congratulations! ^_^
As always great job
Thank you so much!
@@ScrewsAndTools you are very welcome
Keris from Indonesia 😊
Great job
Blacksmith here.
Yes the blade is Patternwelded (Damascus). As it seamingly is common for these kinds of daggers.
Bravo brother 👏👏👏👏
Thanks, sir. That is iconic Indonesia self defense. I think, that keris more than 200 year old. Thank You very much 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!! Wow it's so old?
cool blade, that s an old one, and no it isn't "damascus" and what people call Damascus now generally isn't, it is however a really nice example of a pattern welded blade made of several layers of steel in the traditional manor of those blades and you did a great job of preserving the blade for the future
Thanks!!
Another beautiful job. Almost looks like it was used as a sacrificial instrument😳
Круто , всегда жду ваши видео👍
Большое спасибо, рад читать!
Very nicely done my friend. Those are beautiful daggers. Just made for stabbing. The handle carving was really nice.
Очень круто. Это топ уровень уже👍👍👍👍
Very nice!
It's a Kris sword (dagger) from Southeast Asia possibly Javanese. It's a stabbing sword and you did an amazing job restoring it!!! Beep Beep!😃😃😃
Thanks a lot!
Very nice job. Looks great
Thank you!
เป็นกริช 11คตที่สวยงามครับ
Very cool
Reupholstering the sun visors in my truck and I get the notification that Screws and Tools has a new video. Have to stop and watch. And hello from New Mexico USA
Thank you so much for your attention and feedback) Very nice to read!
Хорошая работа 5 с плюсом. Кинжал удобный, старый но смысл есть. 😁😁
Origin Keris from Indonesia bro.Amazing restoration.
Two comments because it helps you with the algorithm, that's why (also, my first comment was already long-winded enough)
The extreme thinness of the blade is common in old kriss that were actually used (instead of being display pieces) because tradition dictates they are to be cleaned of rust yearly, and traditional techniques were... let's say "a bit agressive". Which means that this piece likely started its days as a well-cared-for, actually used, piece before being turned into a neglected decorative object. Thanks again for providing it with its much-deserved restoration.
Hello! Thank you for information and attention!
Very interesting dagger i am sure that bent blade would have inflicted major damage on its victim, lovely to see it restored and now just cutting plastic bottles
Beepbeep Alex my friend 🤓 another beatiful restoration 👍 Congratulations 👏
Friendships from Belgium 😉🇧🇪👋🇬🇪
Hello Zou!) Thanks!

Как всегда, выше всяких похвал!
Недавно был дома, во Владикавказе, хотел поехать в Тбилиси, на барахолку, погулять, покушать вкусности всякие, да оказалось что паспорт заканчивается меньше, чем через два месяца, а нужно минимум три 😢
Привет! Еще побываете) Успеете главное желание

Я был Тбилиси, работал в цирке, правда давно.
:-)
This was a good one.
What a beautiful dagger. Excellent restoration! Side note: In the famous novel (and movies) "Dune", the knives that the Fremen desert people use are called "crysknives". I didn't know that Frank Herbert borrowed the term for the books until now.
Thank you for your attention and information
Beautiful work! You make it look so easy to turn rusted junk into a museum piece! The nice pattern in the steel comes from the alloy: it's called Pamor steel and is mostly iron doped with a small amount of nickel. Apparently, this started long ago with the use of meteorite iron, which already had a little nickel in it. The Javanese liked how it looked after etching, so they figured out how to make it themselves. Blacksmiths who knew how to make this alloy and forge kris blades were considered important people, as the knives were considered important both physically and spiritually.
You mentioned that the scabbard had a fruity kind of smell. I don't know for sure, but I looked it up and found that kris scabbards and hilts from Java often are made from some kind of sandalwood or rosewood. I get the idea that rosewood was uncommon. Maybe you're smelling some very old sandalwood?
Greetings! Yes, you're right, it's sandalwood. Thank you for your attention and information!
Сначала ставлю лайк, потом смотрю
Спасибо!
Saya orang Kalimantan yang sangat senang dengan keris
I’m glad that fell in your hands only you could do it justice
Thanks!
This is a traditional weapon during the ancient kingdoms in my country, thank you for restoring it.
If you smell the fruit, it's because the Keris is cleaned or washed with flower essence at a certain time.
Thank you!
Very well done, beautiful. I think the hole you filled in in the brass was a weep hole it's to let out any water that may get in so the wood doesn't stay wet and start to mold or rot. It also helps to let out any dirt that may get in the scabbard there should also be a hole in the wood liner as well for the same reason and to keep the blade from rusting. All in all an awesome and amazing restoration. Keep up the killer work brother.
^ this, i was so sad when he closed the hole.
Алекс, интересный экземпляр попался на реставрацию, работа хорошая, чем рукоять забивали когда её ставили на клинок? За субтитры отдельное спасибо. Успехов
Благодарю!

Very nice and you did an excellent job of restoring it also!!!!
I enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Thank you so much!!
Шикарное видео от шикарного автора) Но немножко офигел от остроты этого криса, когда ты проткнул им бутылку таким образом, что она практически не текла при таком пробитии! 😳
Привет! Благодарю, да это я тоже заметил и был удивлен, почему так.
прикольный кинжал похож на дамаск👍
Алекс вот это востановление такого ЭКЗОТИЧЕСКОГО кинжала Крис😊 понравилось, даже больше чем остальные😊😊востановления
Спасибо! Да штука интересная)
