Want to read your opinion, is this keris Bugis or Sumatran? 37,5 cm complete.

Can't it be both?

I certainly see this blade as having a Bugis type profile, but as i know you already know, the Bugis got around the archipelago quite a bit. When you say "Bugis" where are you expecting the blade to made?
