There's really no need to get too involved in this, its sub-classification of a broad general type. Pretty difficult, maybe impossible to do from pics, and even in the hand if you have 6 experts, you'll have 9 opinions.

We should not argue about the tangguh or the origin of the keris...like Alan said, we might have many different opinions. a friend of mine said this keris might be made in HB7 era and made in nganto-ento Jogjakarta. Let's just say this keris has mataram style. the appropriate warangka would be brangah Jogja.
