Yes, sumatran or malayan Keris Panjang. The central ridge is a bit strange for these, perhaps somebody tried to sharpen it some time ago -

- or it is an old reused sword blade, also sometimes seen.

This is most definitely a keris panjang as Gustav has stated so i am going to transfer this thread over to the keris forum where you are likely to get some more informed responses.
