Just have received this unusual keris puthut, I never have seen before such a scabbard, my best guess would be that it is from East-Java or from the North coast, I am unsure about the blade since one of the previous owners seems to have cleaned the blade but it look like it was made this way originally. All comments are very welcome!
480 mm long in the scabbard, 390 mm without, blade without pesi 280 mm.
