Other than that javanese mendak, get a decently carved jawa demam hilt to compliment that beautiful sampir. A simple good one will do. That one looked 'so tourist'. That blade look Malay bugis.

Methinks the luks are too deep for a Malay keris.

Also, for a typical Malay sampir, the rounded buntut is inappropriate.
