Welcome to the forum Bagus.
hmmm….i am afraid that your photos are not very revealing, but it does look like a contemporary creation to me. How long is the blade (without the pesi/tang)? Is the pesi round or more flat? |

Hi,
Not a keris and it falls along the javanese sword class.. 'tempius', 'pedang tusuk' (stabbing sword), with a contemporary flair. The clip point does make it bowie like.. |
