Default Keris tilam sari

Another keris, also javanese, dapur tilam sari I think. Pamor is kelit semangka. The blade is thick, sounds dull, and seems new as the ricikan are, heavy, for lack of a better term. They do not seem too refined.

The nickel shows in thick bands, but it is low contrast, so I'm inclined to try re-doing the stain. The blade is also somewhat rusty and needs a good clean.

Any thoughts on this keris?

Thanks,
Emanuel
