BluErf
has described the type of Kelantanese blade this is. It is what is known as "carita".
If you look at your blade you can see that the fullers within the body of the blade come to a point in the fourth luk creating a profile of a blade
within the blade. The point of this profile begins to turn to the right (in the last photo). If you look to the actual end of your keris the actual point turns in the other direction, towards the front edge of the blade. If we were to just look at this inner profile formed by the fullers we can count 4 luks, an even amount. Because keris luks are always an odd number your point always terminates towards the front edge of the blade. I think Kai Wee finds this inner blade disconcerting because it terminates in the other direction.
