Sumatran Palembang / Minang ?

I have been a low bidder by this keris. Please can you show a picture of the complete blade in classic form? It seems to be a Miangkabau keris and when I am not completely wrong is there a piece of wood broken at the wrongko and the buntut isn't original.
It is indeed a fine pamor and it is a good sign that it is still visible by this very worn blade. The two splits in the sogokans are a sign of many ritual washings and the age of the blade.

Regards,

Detlef
