Default Balinese Keris for consideration/comment

bought on EBAY a while back, since forum is a bit slow, something to fill the dead space... I think/thought it looks ok, to my unschooled eye, not cannibalized or touristy, though the handle looks a bit on the large size for the blade so I could be wrong... it is wood with some sort of horn(?) buttons and end cap. The pamor, I guess, looks as if it should be readily identifiable- I have some reference works, but not at my current residence. Nothing unusual, but I guess the cork screw pesi is not as common as a plain one... only my second from Bali, when it arrived, I remember being quite surprised at how large it was by comparison to those of Java-
