Actually the cenral ridge IS pamor, also the line on gonjo (possibly

).

A pitty the proportions in the pics are distorted (?).

Is this keris Madurese or East-Javanese? What are the similarities, what the differences? I have never heard something substantial about East Javanese keris.

Are the rust holes over the entire blade, also the difference of the edge at sorsoran and elsewhere suspicious?
