I'll jump on Alan's bandwagon. My first impression was also Sumatra.

Thanks, South Sumatra was actually my second guess, I was probably influenced by Semar's indication that this kris has a Buginese scabbard. See another kris from South Sumatra with an ganja iras blade.

That looks like the wavy fraternal twin to Semar's blade Jean.

Yes, and the variety of types of blades attributed to South Sumatra is amazing! To my knowledge the subject has not been studied in detail and some blades may be javanese. Another straight blade with ganja iras and probably originating from South Sumatra also?
