The pics weren't the best, but my feeling is that this is an older Bali keris. Swirl patterns like that kul buntet (?) are fairly rare on an old world Bali keris.

You have a point Nechesh. I forget at times that I may focus too much on the precious metals (a weakness of mine ). I did notice the pamor and that I have not seen this often, though I do agree with BluErf that it goes off the blade at times.
