Hello Gustav,

congrats to this nice find. The sampir look to my eyes as beeing from kemuning. (So far I am able to see it by pictures. I have tried to learn the differences between kemuning and trembalo.)
The buntut you show in your picture look more buginese, I think a buntut like one from the both keris sheaths Kai Wee show in his link would look better for your keris.

Regards,

Detlef
