Looks like a kind of badek. The hilt has some ukiran features of a javanese keris. But there are also some western influences. I would say a javanese dagger.

Kurt, a rule on this forum is that you show the complete piece when asking for a translation. That is the reward for the translator and to satisfy the curiousity of the other forum members. :D

Looks you have a n identical example as shown by A. Alnakkas. Your scabbard has the leather still present but I suppose you have some work to do. Better don't leave it as it is.

Colin,

The pesi is broken. Probably that is the reason why there is no mendak present. This keris is from East Java or Madura. Material of the ukiran is antler or bone as far as i can judge from...

But the blade is different to that of the puukko or other scandinavian knives. Also the dress is a...

Staining this keris if done properly won't harm the blade. This keris would be certainly for me a keeper. I would clean it to bring back its well deserved glory.

You don't know where to buy parts?...

Although i'm not an expert either, something tells me that this nice worked out mandau is more recent. My guess is that this one is used for dancing purposes.
