I would also be interested to hear Alan's explanation, but to me a Keris is a weapon, a kind of dagger more exactly, suitable for stabbing.
The one in the photo is not a weapon or a dagger as it won't be able to stab anything without bending or even breaking.
However, it may be called "decorative keris"... I believe.
