Yes, of course a composite keris and I am also sure that the blade not original to the sheat since the middle of the jejeran not line up with the "Ri cangkring" of the wrongko.

I've bought it because the sheat. Is it maybe a coteng form? This is my hope!

The blade is a very poor one, this suggest the picture and seems to be from Java or Madura.
