littledirtnap :This does look like a very old and authentic knife ,but the hilt and blade dont match at all, the hilt looks like a gunong grip from the Philippines.
As to the meteorite question, this is one of those things that got mentioned one time in a book and now everybody thinks all keris are made from meteors.Aside from some testing of the content of the steel I dont think there is any way to tell.I seriously doubt that there are many keris that were actually made from meterites,and by many I mean very ,very ,very few.
