Default Sampir Keris ID Pls.

Hello friends, appreciate if you all can help. This sampir has that kind of crescent line at the center instead of being straight . Please try to authenticate origin. Thanks in advance, Mykeris.

That's much better, with the pic well shown.. if not when the pic goes missing, it's hard to trace back the origin of discussion..
nice wood grains, btw..

Shahrial, it's nice to see that great minds still think alike.

I think this sheath is N. Malayan in origin. Though I'm still pondering if it is Terengganu or Kelantan. I have a few sheaths with features similar to this one, but not quite.

Yup, northern peninsular of origin, inspired by Palembang sampir as told by a keris guru from Kelantan - Cikgu Daud
