Hi Danny,

agree with Willem, very good etching job and nice blade which look like a East Java or Madura blade to my eyes. Sheath and handle look balinese. But agree with Kai and David, keep it like found. How is the fit from the blade inside the sheath?

Regards,

Detlef

Hi Detlef,

The fit of the blade in the sheath is not ''original'' the sheath is to wide for the blade , but I think it's already a long time like this .

I'm still not sure it's Balinese , it could be but the sheath is a little more ''fat'' then what you see common for a Balinese Waranka .

Sorry Danny, i hit "edit" instead of "quote" in error the first time.
I think this one might be all Madura from the looks of it...

I have no hesitation in providing my opinion that this second keris is 100% Bali-Madura.
