Edge weapons at Capodimonte Museum

Unlikely I'm no more in Napoli; so I can't give more information ! The Kampilan (?) blade was about 65 - 75 cm long; the showcase was quite dark so I can't tell if the belida blade was twistcore. I didn't take pics of the many edged weapons on the wall; those i sent looks to me the more interesting; however there was also another showcase with an interesting collection of indonesian kerises.
I hope someone else, more clever to take pics, will send better and more pics. Attached a pic of a good keris.
