Talking Second purchase

Here another knife from the same source as the sewar.

Could this be a 'siraui' ? The scabbard is shaped like the sheath of a keris, but it contains an ordinary knife. The blade is single-edged, without pamor.
The wooden handle fits very well into the hand. The crossguard is made out of copper.

Total length : 33 cm.

Again : any comment is appreciated.
