The Keris Pendek Diraja is made out of steel sourced from old daggers and features a hilt and sheath made of ivory and engraved in gold.
SYMBOLISING splendour, authority and supremacy, His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia, and Her Majesty Raja Zarith Sofiah, Queen of Malaysia, would be seen donning the grand royal regalia during the installation ceremony.
Since independence, the royal regalia has been passed down from one Ruler to another and has been used on many occasions for generations – this includes His Majesty’s father Almarhum Sultan Iskandar Sultan Ismail, who was King 40 years ago.
