Bugis keris for comment

[Sajen]

Just won this Bugis keris for a very low price. I still have some pangulu handle so I can complete this keris. I think when the fit from the blade inside the sheath is good this have been a real bargain. What do you think?

If the blade fits well in the scabbard you have a very nice bargain here.

And without a perfect fit, it will still be a bargain :-)

Yes, i was watching that one too. Even emailed the guy to correct his description. :)
I'd say you got a very nice blade there and is it's a good fit in the sheath that's just an extra bonus. Unfortunately he didn't show any photos of that fit.

Thank you both for the kind words. Good that the seller don't follow your advise David, I don't think that I will get it for this price then! :D
