From this last group of photos it would seem that this Madura village is focussing on producing Bali style keris.
And i would have to see a closer picture, but you may have just solved the origin of this hilt of mine:

Your second grouping, 4th from the left, looks like a dead ringer.

They can made any style David, as long as any demand.

I probably inexperience with Balinese keris, but to me your hilt doesn't has a Balinese soul, and I believe also that it is contemporary and recent one, I'm sorry.
