The nentay (Rite of Ascention) marks the Klingon's coming of age and a new 
level of spiritual attainment as a warrior.  PK indicates that a Klingon 
undergoes the nentay in the 7th month of the 15th year of his life.

Worf was born in 2340.  He underwent his nentay at age 15 in 2355.  He 
celebrated the 10th anniversay of his nenghep aboard the Enterprise in 
2365.
