Hello Green,
My opinion is as follows: old and decent Javanese blade with some flaws, gayaman style scabbard from Solo, nice ivory janggelan hilt from East Java/ Madura but poor quality and inadequate selut. From the pics the type/ dhapur of the 11 luk blade does not seem to be a Javanese standard.
Regards
