Thank you Alan. I purchased it for the hilt (needed for another Bali keris in my collection), but will clean this up hoping to have a rough, but honest old village keris with attractive pamor. I may circle back after it is cleaned up to see if I can learn a bit more, but understood this is not a particularly interesting keris for this board. A veneer would be easier to replace than a pendok if it turns out to be worth the effort.
