Yes you are right in that, it was.(the one in the book)

PS, but i have to say, that even these and the other type of tourist class keris, are getting older by the day. And if we take into consideration that some types were being made or put together( some of them have really old blades inside of the crappy sheaths!!) +1890 for Dutch Knil soldiers and others to bring home to the family after time in the Dutch-Indies to be hanged above the chimney.

Just saying that it totally depend on the collector if its interesting or not, some could be or in the future, IMO.
