Sometimes this kind of occurrence really tells us why knowledge and experience are important.

Even a scholar can be cheated off something he barely knows...

The handle of this piece is African. Probably a small bone or even ivory statue from the Lega tribe in Congo...a new one !

Yep, and i am as guilty as the next guy for making a comment that is aimed more at the seller than the keris itself. In fact, it seems to me that just about all of our comments on this thread are really directed towards the seller either directly or indirectly and at this point i don't see any constructive point to keeping the thread open. No fingers pointed anywhere here, but i think it's best if we put this one to bed.
