Also, I have tried to contact the seller of my keris. He told me that the keris was bought from a village in Magetan. The previous owner got this keris from his parents. Although there is not 100% guarantee that this keris is created in Magetan, but he got the keris there.

such a coincidence! And so well placed in time.
"Keris moves in mysterious ways."
All I can say, having handled a Keris by Paku Rodji, some time before I did see the article, is, that the Greneng of it wasn't at all similar to the quite distinctive one presented here, it had that small Stupa-like carving indeed, it didn't had the tightening around the Pesi and it's Garap was of good quality. It had also less Pamor indeed.
But, as I said, the feeling handling it was similar to the one I posted.
If there is a possibility for it to be a work from Magetan, I guess it would be done before the time of Empu Paku Rodji.
