I'll be visiting San Francisco and was wondering if there are any museums, antique shops/malls focusing on Southeast Asian materials, mainly insular region.
Thanks for the suggestions!

Lucky you! This is a must:
http://www.sanfrancisco.travel/explore/arts-culture/asian-art-museum-san-francisco
It has many beautiful and important Kerisses on display, among them the perhaps best preserved Megantoro in existence:

Thanks for the information. The links do not work, but I see you are referring me to the Asian Art Museum. I went to their website and typed in "keris" and "Indonesia" in the search bar, but there were not results. Could you link me to another site?
Thanks!

Just type "kris dagger", you can still use the second link for it.
