Please find details of opinion, description and photos of this item at Ethnographic Weapons discussion under title: Is it an authentic Barong. I would like to swap with a large, good pamor bugis keris. TQ Mykeris.

It's really hard to tell much without seeing the blade. The dress looks pretty new and perhaps a bit touristy, but without seeing more of it it's hard to say if it is "authentic" or even if it is something that anyone would want to swap for. :shrug: :)
