Just a small question. Do you think that Sumatran keris, Bugis Keris, Cirebonese keris, Javanese kerises they are Malay weapons?

I do agree, the more book the merrier, but I do prefer quality contents, rather than repetition of the same thing. Don't get me wrong, I not promoting this book, merely stating its contents. A small question but not easy to answer. What is the definition of Malay? I do agree with Alan's explanation..
