This keris has the exact same perabots as one of Dave's Bugis keris. Dave's keris is supposedly from the island of Sumbawa. Its a good robust blade, with few layers in the pamor, as often seen in Bugis blades, like yours.

And for those interested in seeing this keris of Dave's, go to to Rangsang Rias Pusaka Bangsa II at the Istana Kampong Glam this weekend. Its in the competition. Not difficult to spot. Its the giant one.
